(3) K-3 In Iktomi's seventh misadventure, the self-absorbed Plains Indian trickster leases a strange man's eye-juggling trick. Readers will have such a blast with the tale's absurdity (having violated the terms of his contract, Iktomi ends up with one buffalo eye and one mouse eye) and visual jokes, that they won't mind being left hanging regarding Iktomi's fate.
