A wonderful collection of Native American Legends. The accompanying artwork is an excellent representation of traditional images of the Pacific Northwest. A really great book for a classroom to use, especially here in the NW since it pertains to the history ad culture of where we live. The CD is a nice addition, and helps to showcase the oral tradition of Native American story telling.
