Editorial Reviews

From AudioFile

These thirteen tales from native cultures around the world share the theme of women, woman-spirit and animals. Professional storyteller Laura Simms has a splendid voice; she truly tells, rather than narrates, each piece. The nuances of each unusual story are enlivened with her spellbinding telling. The accompanying music, played on nineteen different instruments, is evocative and haunting. The uniqueness of the instruments, from the bamboo flute and didgeridoo to the Irish bodran drum to the caxixi, are of cultural interest in themselves. N.B.H. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

This review is from: Women and Wild Animals: Howl the Morning Welcome (Audio Cassette)

This is beautiful! A must have for story lovers and those interested in the lore of other cultures. "Wolf Girl on Devil's Creek" makes me cry...everytime. The stories are occasionally--and aptly--accompanied by tribal type instruments. A nice addition and not at all overdone.
