Haida Legends 

---

Welcome to the Haida Legends Page. All of these legends were written and illustrated by Grade 4 students at Selkirk Elementary. Students created these web pages with Netscape Composer. We hope you enjoy reading the legends as much as we enjoyed creating them. You can also visit our school website at http://www.yesnet.yk.ca/schools/
