Turtle Island: Tales of the Algonquian Nations,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Turtle Island: Tales of the Algonquian Nations (Hardcover)
This book is great for introducing children of all ages to the Algonquian world-view.
Some of the stories are easy for anyone to understand. Others require more study to fully appreciate them. As a storyteller who specializes in Native American animal stories, I found several in this book to add to my repertoire.

Turtle Island: Tales of the Algonquian Nations,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Turtle Island: Tales of the Algonquian Nations (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful set of short stories that give us a glimpse into the Native American culture. Several stories are spiritually uplifting such as "Rainbow Crow." You get to know a sense of history as well. For example, Nantucket was formed from Maushop's pipe ashes and Squant turned it into rock. This is a great book for educators and those who seek to learn about ancestral stories.
