I'm glad that I purchased this book inspite of the reviews. I really enjoyed it. I love native american folklore, history and tales. I am from Montana and have always admired the native american for who they are and were. We could learn so much from them. I felt the author gave me a wonderful glimpse into the forest and the animals that belong there. I loved how she interacted her characters with those animals without it being far fetched and unrealistic. I believe there was a time and still is that animals and men can communicate. Each requires their own respect. As an artist I was able to visualize several pictures from this story that are just waiting to be put to color. Her descriptions and feel of the story did just that for me.
