This selection of stories was originally told by Native Americans. Coyote shows us the values of being different, the advantages of being smart, and the dangers of being too proud. These Native American tales give us a familiar and interesting twist to the older American tales that we all know very well.
I would use this book in my classroom because it is a pretty easy read and the tales are not too long. I think that there is a clear moral at the end of each tale that the kids can relate to. I also like these tales because they are almost like our all too familiar American tales that we tell each other. I believe that the kids will be able to make distinctions between the two tales and maybe come up with some on there own!
