Arrow to the Sun of men. Arrow to the Sun Arrow to the Sun is a 1973 short film and a 1974 book, both by Gerald McDermott. The book was printed in gouache and ink, and won the 1975 Caldecott Medal for illustration. Both media are a retelling of a Pueblo tale, specifically an Acoma Pueblo tale, in which a mysterious boy seeks his father. The Boy (who does not have a name) is the son of the Sun lord, who sends the spark of life into a maiden of the Pueblo. He is ridiculed by the other boys because he has no father.
