The Girl Who Helped Thunder and Other Native American Folktales

(4) 4-6 Folktales of the World series. Illustrated by Stefano Vitale. This collection is divided into major culture zones. A prefatory note describes the people and ways of life of each area. Three or four tales follow, with brief introductions; some of the stories' plots are heavily Europeanized. The book is illustrated with fanciful adaptations of Native American styles and motifs, deftly done (if hardly genuine). Source notes.
