Zuñi Coyote Tales
Author: Frank Hamilton Cushing
Publisher: University of Arizona Press
ISBN: 0816543313
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
Coyote tales are among the best loved in Native American folklore, and those recorded by anthropologist Frank Hamilton Cushing at the end of the nineteenth century have well survived the test of time. This collection of authentic stories extracted from his classic Zuñi Folk Tales offers modern readers of all ages a new appreciation of magic and myth as celebrated by the Zuñi Indians of western New Mexico. These tales pit the wily Coyote against various demons and other creatures in order to convey simple lessons or explain animal characteristics or behavior. They tell how the tip of the coyote's tail became black after dancing with blackbirds and how coyotes learned never to insult horned-toads—and to keep clear of burrowing-owls. Through these tales, we learn why Coyote meddles with everything that does not concern him, makes a universal nuisance of himself, and is ready to jump into any trap laid for him.

Coyote Tales
Author: Karen Hamilton
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1639616438
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
Coyote Tales is about a coyote and his coat. Coyote looks like any other coyote at first sight. His coat is fur on the outside, but it turns into a different coat when need be. This coat has many pockets with all the answers to any questions you might have, and that is where the adventure begins. In Coyote Tales, Coyote meets Little Warrior, not yet six winters old, who couldn't find his parents. Then he meets Ophelia, an octopus that has found herself out of the ocean and in a place she has never been. She has many experiences. And lastly, Coyote meets his old friend Raccoon who also lives in the woods. They take a trip to town and get into all kinds of trouble. Fortunately, Coyote has his other coat, and they all find answers there. Coyote is a jokester, and he brings about balance of wisdom and folly. Writing Coyote Tales was one of the best experiences of my life. I thank God for them as I know he had a very big hand in the writing of them. I hope they bring laughter and joy to all who read them.
