Native American Stories Told By Joseph Bruchac

Description for NATIVE AMERICAN STORIES TOLD BY JOSEPH BRUCHAC by Michael J Caduto and Joseph Bruchac with a foreword by N Scott Momaday:

NATIVE AMERICAN STORIES is a collection of myths drawn from the native cultures of North America--from the Inuit in the north to the Zuni, Hopi, and Cherokee in the south. A Common thread throughout these stories is the native view of the world as family---Earth as our Mother, Sun as our Father and the animals as our brothers and sisters. The stories foster an ethic of stewardship by clearly showing that we are entrusted with a very special mission---to maintain the natural balance, to take care of our Mother, to be Keepers of the Earth.

Each story is beautifully illustrated by Mohawk artist John Kahiohnhes Fadden.
