A joyful tale of discovery

The Lost Kachina is a charming children's picturebook written by Heather Irbinskas and illustrated by Robert Albert about a long-haired Kachina doll that is left, unknown and unappreciated, upon a classroom shelf until a Hopi teacher, Mr. Loloma, comes to the classroom and tells the students about what the doll means to Hopi Native Americans. A story of learning more about and opening one's mind to how other cultures do and see things, The Lost Kachina is a joyful tale of discovery with the moral that things which are different from what one is accustomed to can be wonderful too.
