Publisher Description: Delightful, humorous, and poignant, Wild Wisdom enchants readers with vivid and vibrant animal stories from Native America. These stories embody a living tradition based on a mutually beneficial relationship with the natural world-one that continues to resonate to this day, and one that many of us long to experience. From Coyote telling us what not to do by doing it, to Hummingbird's healing hum, to Turkey saving Thanksgiving for everyone but himself, Wild Wisdom captures the connection we all have, regardless of who we are or where we live, to Native animal wisdom of the Southwest. |
