Kokopelli's Flute

Kokopelli's Flute

by Will Hobbs

Overview

THE MAGIC HAD ALWAYS BEEN THERE.
Tep Jones has always felt the magic of Picture House, an Anasazi cliff dwelling near the seed farm where he lives with his parents. But he could never have imagined what would happen to him on the night of a lunar eclipse, when he finds a bone flute left behind by grave robbers. Tep falls under the spell of a powerful ancient magic that traps him at night in the body of an animal.
Only by unraveling the mysteries of Picture House can Tep save himself and his desperately ill mother. Does the enigmatic old Indian who calls himself Cricket hold the key to unlocking the secrets of the past? And can Tep find the answers in time?

My 8th grade boy recommended this to me and I liked it so well I had my husband read it. I'm going to buy copies for several relatives. A great mix of nature, family relationships, environment, ethics, Native American myth/legend, gardening.

Tepary's passion for the outdoors and his love to farm beans gives him the name Tepary, which is named after the Tepary Bean. Also his trusty dog Dusty helps along and she too is amazing I read this as an English project and I like the book so much that I baught it. I reccomend this book to everyone no matter what your age.

Will Hobbs does a very good job of taking you inside the story to create the atmosphere of where the story takes place and how events develop. This is interesting, educational and a book that keeps you going until the last page. I like the way he writes and plan to purchase more of his titles because he uses real life facts also.
