In The Time of the Kachinas, a reader experiences magic and beauty though the eyes of two Hopi Indian children, Hester, nine, and Honu, seven, as they watch the plaza dances and other public ceremonies that occur during the year from the time the first Kachina spirit appears in their village in December until a time in July, when the Kachinas go home. This is a book for readers of all ages that is educational and fascinating, with 29 full-color drawings created by the author from her collection of Kachina dolls. Included in the book is a glossary and a page of maps that show the location of traditional Hopi villages.
