This book discusses about fascinating stories of native american folklore.
The first indian legends, repeated by the fireside to children, deal with the animals humanized, their gifts and their weaknesses, in such a way as to be a lesson to the young. Our view of the creation allows a soul to all living creatures, and rocks and trees are reverenced as sharers in the divine. Beyond their simplicity and realism there is always the unexplained, the background of mystery and spirituality. Stories include:children of the cloud,the captive,the first fire,bluebird and coyote,how the turkey got his beard,the owl gets married,the enchanted lake,the good little spirit,followers of the sun,how the daylight came,the man who entertained bears,
