Nature's Circle: and Other Northwest Coast Children's Stories
As in Aesop's fables and First Nations legends, the animals, birds, and insects in these stories are the ones who do the teaching. Mother Eagle helps her daughter overcome her sibling rivalry. An encounter with Mosquito teaches a little girl that revenge doesn't make a person feel any better. Little Orca learns from his grandfather that being grown up has very little to do with how big you are.
