Recognizing the widespread American Indian belief that you can learn while you play and play while you learn, "Native American Games and Stories" provides young readers with stories and games that educate and entertain them. Illustrations.
Welcome the second book in the "Folktales of the World" series!
Engaging, inspirational, and above all entertaining, these legends
come from Native American peoples across the U.S. Richly
illustrated with original art, they capture a wide range of belief
systems and wisdom from the Cherokee, Cheyenne, Hopi, Lenape,
Maidu, Seminole, Seneca, and other tribes. The beautifully retold
tales, all with informative introductions, range from creation
myths to animal fables to stirring accounts of bravery and
sacrifice. Find out how stories first came to be, and how the
People came to the upper world. Meet Rabbit, the clever and
irresistible Creek trickster. See how the buffalo saved the Lakota
people, and why the Pawnee continue to do the Bear Dance to this
very day.
See those animal signs on the trail? Was that footprint left by a fox or a wolf? Was that pile of droppings deposited by a moose, a mouse, or a marten? Scats and Tracks of the Northeast will help you determine which mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians have passed your way and could still be nearby. Clearly written descriptions and illustrations of scats, tracks, and gait patterns will help you recognize seventy Northeast species. An identification key, a glossary of tracking terms, and detailed instructions on how to document your finds are also included here. Easy-to-use scat and track measurements appear on each page, making this book especially field friendly and letting you know if a white tailed ptarmigan, a red fox, or even a black bear has been your way.
