Kunu's Basket: A Story from Indian Island

Kunu wants to make a pack basket, just like the other men on Indian Island.

But making the basket is difficult, and Kunu gets frustrated. He is ready to give up when his grandfather intervenes. This is not only a story about a family tradition, but also a story about learning to be patient and gentle with yourself.
