Strikingly colorful illustrations capture this Inka folktale about a young messenger, Chaski, on his very first task. He is to deliver a message to the Inka before the sun sets. Along the way, Chaski encounters several animals in trouble, and stops his journey to help. This is a story not only about the historical messengers, but it’s also about offering kindness to those in need.
I really appreciated the background information and especially, the glossary.

I loved taking an adventure through the Inka Trail in RUN, LITTLE CHASKI! It highlights culture and kindness, and I was happy to share it with my family. We had fun learning Quechua words from the glossary and the illustrations are gorgeous! I Highly recommend this engaging read.

Little Chaski is a messenger for the Inka empire. He must run swiftly to deliver a message to the King before the sun sets. Along the way he stops to help animals in trouble, and is rewarded when they return the favor when Little Chaski is in trouble.
I love this introduction to the rich Inka culture! At the back of the book, there is a glossary of Inka words and a little bit of history about the Inka empire.
Little Chaski is such a cute character. I love that he is smart and swift, but also very kind. He inspires the reader to look past their immediate goals and be willing to help others.
The illustrations are very brightly colored. I liked the rolling hills and mountains in the background of each scene. There are rivers and ponds to be crossed, and through it all the Inca trail leads the messengers through the countryside. The art work is lovely!
