This is collection of Ojebwe folktales is told in the oral storytelling tradition. It was a refreshing read because I was not familiar with a single story. The beautiful illustrations are art museum quality. This book should be more readily available! It is not easy to find, even in Ontario where the author is from!
A nice collection of legends from oral tellings with an authentic voice. The illustrations in the book are beautiful paintings.
While I wouldn't recommend this if you're not already familiar with Native American folklore, it's a good collection of oral folklore, with some lovely illustrations.
