Coyote’S Christmas Tale


Book Description

The story Coyotes Christmas Tale is about a young coyote who lived on the Dinetah, also referred to as the Navajo Reservation. It is a childrens story that encompasses elements of the American Southwest. The story contains animals from the southwest, as well as Native Americans, the Dine, who are more widely known as the Navajo. The story does have some traditional Native American elements, but it is not meant to be a historical piece of writing. The story allows for the readers to use their imagination and to make their own inferences. I hope you enjoy it.

A Coyote Solstice Tale


Book Description

Winner of the American Indian Library Association Youth Literature Awards, Best Picture Book. Trickster Coyote is having his friends over for a festive solstice get-together in the woods when a little girl comes by unexpectedly. She leads the party-goers through the snowy woods to a shopping mall -- a place they have never seen before. Coyote gleefully shops with abandon, only to discover that fi lling your shopping cart with goodies is not quite the same thing as actually paying for them. The trickster is tricked and goes back to his cabin in the woods -- somewhat subdued -- though nothing can keep Coyote down for long.
