Coyote Tales

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Byron Eggenschwiler. This slim volume collects two previously, separately published tales by consummate First Nations storyteller King, with new black-and-white illustrations. Both stories are set "a long time ago," before humans and animals stopped talking to each other, and feature Coyote less as devious trickster and more as hapless dupe. King's sense of humor is on full display, and he enlivens the tales with gleeful, effortless anachronisms.
