Customer Reviews

A wide range of stories clearly told...

Speaking as not only a Cherokee great-granddaughter, but also as a lover of stories, and as a youth services library clerk, I can say that I recommend this book to everyone. The collectors/editors themselves are of American Indian ancestry, and their respect for these stories is obvious. The language is clear, the imagery beautiful... Excellent for read-aloud, terrific for broadening children's horizons!
