Dreamfighter and Other Creation Tales,
By
This review is from: Dreamfighter and Other Creation Tales (Paperback)
These stories are so interesting: stories about God's creation of different animals, both sucesses and failures, and their quirks. Told with an unique sense of humor. Hughes is very original and imaginative.
