Chica is a hound dog who lives in the foothills of Santa Fe, New Mexico with her human parents. She can see and hear all kinds of animals and can smell where animals have been. She and her family have seen some of the animals and have seen tracks of many others. Chica's family set up a trail camera to photograph these visitors and Chica narrates the story of what the camera sees. Chica's Tales includes images of animals in their natural habitat that are rarely seen or talked about. It also describes how some of the animals relate to each other and some of their behaviors. Finally, there are selected stories from the Native Americans who lived in the area for over a thousand years and what these stories can teach us. Includes a Readers Guide.
