Summary: It's too bad
Review: that Medicine Story Manitonquat Francis Talbot had to go and change perfectly wonderful creation stories to make his book more marketable. This book is published for children and it is reinforcing the stereotypes the dominant culture has of Indian Peoples.

Summary: Stories for children of all ages...
Review: This is an outstanding collection of traditional Wampanoag stories by well-known Wampanoag Story-teller Manitonquat. Stories that explore many facets of the "Long-Ago Time" -- when the humans and animals still spoke the same language -- focused around the actions of the twin culture-heroes of the Wampanoag, these stories are a joy for children and contain important insight and information for adults.
