Coast Salish Tales 2:
Qwiwilh the wood duck is preparing to nest in his favourite tree when Q'uleeq'e' the crow invites him to play in the tall branches. They jump higher and higher up the tree until they accidentally break the branches and come crashing down into the stream below. After a daring rescue, Qwiwilh sadly realizes his nesting spot is gone, and Q'uleeq'e' decides to make things right for her new friend.

This is the second book in the Coast Salish Tales, following Otter Doesn't Know. This book contains 11 Colour illustrations.
