Reviews

"Full of native songs, dances and magical creatures, this silly story is an immersion into a Cree folkloric world... Cree words are easily understood through context clues, and there's a glossary at the end.....for readers who enjoy trickster tales, or for units on tricksters in different cultures....and larger collections looking to add more Native American fiction."
-- Youth Services Book Review

"Endearing characters and cheerful illustrations bring this humorous, engaging story to life. A great read- aloud for both children and adults."
