"When Raven came across Walrus expertly diving for clams, he quickly became jealous of Walrus's great clam-hunting skills. So, as Walrus was about to surface with a tasty mouthful of clams, Raven cast a spell on the ocean, freezing Walrus in place! Walrus's curly, twisting tusks became frozen in the enchanted ice. But Raven soon discovered that his magic was no match for Walrus's great physical strength. Walrus managed to escape, but his tusks would never be the same!"--Back cover.
"In the time before animals were as they are today, Walrus, who had spiraled curly tusks and not the long, straight tusks we recognize today, spent his time diving for clams. One day, Walrus was about to surface with a mouthful of tasty clams, when Raven cast a spell on the ocean, freezing Walrus in place under the water. Walrus curly, twisting tusks became frozen in the enchanted ice, but Raven soon discovered that his magic was no match for Walrus great physical strength as he managed to escape but his tusks would never be the same. This fun dynamic animal tale pits two of the Arctic's most popular animal characters against each other in an amusing battle of wits and brawn" -- From Amazon.
