When the Tiny People see the blue sky above for the very first time, they begin to venture up and out of their low-lying homes where, traveling aboard the backs of Eagle, Turtle, and Bear, they learn how to face their fears, improve their lives, and eventually grow as tall as the trees!

NANCY WOOD has written a number of award-winning children's books, including OLD COYOTE, illustrated by Max Grafe, which won the Mountains and Plains Booksellers Association Picture Book Award. She says, "We are all Tiny People at heart. Though the story of these Tiny People is based on an American Indian emergence myth, it could be about people and animals anywhere." Nancy Wood lives near Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she still occasionally glimpses Tiny People dancing in the wilderness.


REBECCA WALSH graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a degree in illustration. She says of HOW THE TINY PEOPLE GREW TALL, "I admire these Tiny People, particularly their plucky leader, who is the tiniest of all. I am honored that I have had the chance to paint their adventure." This is her first book with Candlewick Press.
