Myths and Legends

Thought I would share this book with the forum:

American Indian Myths and Legends

It is a compilation of stories/myths/legends from about 80 tribes. I love this book (still reading it though).

Also, a Hallmark movie release if you are interested in Native myths and legends:

Dreamkeeper

That is one of my all time favorit books. I picked it up years ago in a thrift store. Unforturnately when I sold my house and moved full time in my RV I think it was put in a box of books to be donated back to the thrift store. I always liked the story of how the crow became black and the Owl Husband. My balls for you dinner is great too!! Dreamkeeper looks awesome I will have to check that out! Great Avatar Mud Hawk!
