The Legend of Sleeping Bear
by Kathy-Jo WarginIt is believed that the Ojibwe of Michigan were the first to tell the story of Sleeping Bear and her cubs, a legend that has since become known as The Legend of Sleeping Bear.

As they struggle to make this journey across Lake Michigan, the loyalty and dedication they show for one another is powerful and heartwarming.
