Thundering drums, rattling hooves, clinking jingles—Jeff didn’t even know what a jingle was before his amazing weekend at the powwow! As a non-Indigenous boy, Jeff has never had a chance to take in the sights, sounds, and spirit of this incredible gathering. Now, thanks to his friend and classmate, Paul Wahasaypa, Jeff will have a front-row seat to many styles of dance. Encouraged by the lighthearted laughter and heartfelt wisdom of Paul and his Uncle Lenard, Jeff will learn about Grass dancers, Fancy Shawl dancers, and Chicken dancers, just to name a few. Yes, in this welcoming atmosphere, he finds himself amazed by the beauty of the regalia, the athleticism and grace of the dancers, and the resilient spirit of the people. Most of all, Jeff feels blessed to learn the stories and teachings that have carried this beautiful tradition for so many years. Dazzling illustrations make it easy to experience the love of the dance. See you at the powwow!
