(2) 4-6 Illustrated by James Watts. The history and culture of the Southeastern indigenous peoples have been infrequently conveyed in children's books, but these twenty-seven stories are familiar as well as new. Curry provides a quick history of each of the sixteen peoples with whom the stories originated. Readers will find enticing images and bits of mystery in this felicitous collection, and many storytellers will find at least one new story for their repertoires.
