Why Do Navajos Always Put a Border on Their Famous Blankets?,
By Lynn Ellingwood "The ESOL Teacher" (Webster, NY United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Magic Of Spider Woman (Paperback)
This is a native american folk tale explaining why the Navajo people always place a decorative border on their blankets. The art work is stunning but the writing is confusing and the story doesn't quite jell. The book is a good addition to book collections about native American folk tales but there are other books that are better than this one.

Good character building story,
By Val "Val R" (OK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Magic Of Spider Woman (Paperback)
This book is one we have chosen to use as cultural enrichment in a classroom setting. It teaches character traits like integrity or being a person of your word and the consequences that go along with wrong choices. It is rich with cultural customs that can be brought "alive" to students in various subjects such as art, math and social studies. The illustrations are attractive and the overall look of the book and story is more current than some illustrations of Indian legends.
