Like comics? I think yes. Like moral stories? I think no. This book is full of both. This book is all about animal stories, morals and how certain animals turned from how they once were to how they are in the present. This book is about the best 21 Native American stories, put together in graphics and comical form. Also, in the book, all the stories are not created in the same style of drawing, as the author changes of course, and the drawer or painter changes as well. The drawing styles vary from comical style to detailed paintings. The story ‘Coyote and the Pebbles’ is drawn and painted with every single stroke of the brush or line of the pencil looking absolutely beautiful whereas the ‘Rabbit’s Choctaw Tail Tale’ looks like it’s been taken from the world’s most hilarious children’s comic. My favourite one is how the ‘Alligator Got His Scaly Brown Skin’. It’s about an alligator who has beautiful yellow skin and goes around showing it off to everybody. The animals in the forest decide to teach the alligator a lesson. When the alligator is sleeping the animals set his surroundings on fire and the alligators skin burns and goes brown. This book is excellent for kids above five because it has a little enhanced vocabulary and it teaches you very good values and morals. This book is an absolute cracker.
