She manages to bring the world of human and animal together in ways that change us, or remind us of how we used to be so much more connected and dependent upon one another -- to the point that we may not know the boundaries between being a small boy or an ice bear cub at any given time.

Deep in the snowbound Arctic landscape, an ice bear wakes to find one of her cubs stolen by black Raven. Far away, a hunter finds a small boy on the ice and brings him home to his childless wife. Seven years pass, and one day the boy encounters Raven and follows him, becoming hopelessly lost. What happens to the child? Raven's role in the story is always elusive, adding to the wonder of the tale.

This is the kind of book I would want to read over and over again to my child because it expresses the possibility that we and the wild are still one.
