A Huichol boy has been selected by the creator of all growing things to escape the coming flood.
When the floodwaters recede, Watakame witnesses the re-creation of the sun and all living things. He instructs
the people to respect the Earth and live lightly on the land and care for the beautiful new world that is their home.
The story which has been carefully researched offers a view into the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of the Huichol.
