5.0 out of 5 stars
A model to reinvent sustainable cultures, June 9, 2005
This review is from: Selu and Kana' Ti: Cherokee Corn Mother and Lucky Hunter (Mondo Folktales) (Paperback)
In an age where humanity stands at the brink of collapsing ecosystems, this book is one of few teaching our children that food doesn't just come out of our pockets or leap into our arms. Amongst the plethora of books for children teaching us that food appears out of bags and is endlessly abundant, and bigger and more automatically equates to better, this rare book recalls the Cherokee folklore helping us to know better. If only there were more books like this for small children. There needs to be more to help stem the madness from an early age.
Food from healthy soil and from seed that stands on it's own in nature will always taste better and be more healthy than the water logged products scamming us at the grocery store. Listen to your Earth parents whisper in your ear, not your culture parents who seek to stay on top of the pyramid.
