4.0 out of 5 stars Pacific Island Legends, September 3, 2008
By 
This review is from: Pacific Island Legends: Tales from Micronesia, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Australia (Paperback)
Overall the book is a great way to learn, or begin to learn, about the islands of the pacific. Although aimed at children it is still useful for readers of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars good children's book, January 8, 2008
This review is from: Pacific Island Legends: Tales from Micronesia, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Australia (Paperback)
i thought this was a good book for kids. it has the definition of some of the difficult words on the side of the text and has great art to complement the stories. but for someone from the islands, it was a bit dissappointing in that some of the legends were seriously augmented. granted, there are many versions of the same legends in the islands but not one that is so far from all the rest that they are hardly recognizable, save for the title. but overall, i found the book to be beautifully written and magical.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended for students, scholars, and general readers., April 6, 2000
This review is from: Pacific Island Legends: Tales from Micronesia, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Australia (Paperback)
The legends and folk lore embodied in the culture and values of Pacific island peoples are showcased in Pacific Island Legends, a single, easy to read volume that is beautifully illustrated with the woodcut images of Connie J. Adams. Educators Bo Flood, Beret Strong, and William Flood have successfully collaborated to present forty-four legends from all over the Pacific, serving to provide cultural access that will be appreciated by scholars and non-specialist general readers alike. Pacific Island Legends is a highly recommended addition to any personal, academic, or public library multicultural myth, legend and folklore reference collection.
