About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

When the Great Spirit presents a challenge to the birds, one of the birds tricks the others and earns the prettiest song. Find out which bird—and where you can hear it today. This treasured story, handed down through the Zimmerman family, features traditional knowledge from the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa.

Join Travis Zimmerman for a read-aloud of How the Birds Got Their Songs, followed by a book signing!
