Is My Friend at Home?: Pueblo Fireside Tales

(1) K-3 Illustrated by Wendy Watson. Why do Coyote's teeth appear broken? Why does Mouse walk softly? The answers can be found in these seven interconnected tales of friendship, originally told around a fireside to children of the Hopi Indian community of northern Arizona. Watson's cartoon illustrations, featuring an endearingly frazzled cast, capture the spirit of these disarmingly absurd, unexpectedly touching tales.
