THE FIFTH AND FINAL SUN: An Ancient Aztec Myth of the Sun's Origin Ref: RED129

C Shana Greger

Back in the earliest memories of the world stands the legend of the five suns. During the reigns of the first four suns, the earth and its inhabitants alternately lived in near darkness, suffered raging floods and volcanic catastrophe, and thrived in gentle fertility. The fifth and final sun was created, not in rage or hope of power, but in humility and sacrifice. It is this sun, according to Aztec mythology, under which we live today. "A picture book likely to wend its way into the memories of imaginative children." - Booklist
