American Indian Trickster Tales by Richard Erdoes
3.0
This book is a compilation of Native American trickster tales. It's divided into thirteen parts, each with a different theme or trickster characters. Trickster characters include coyote, raven, rabbit, and more.
Each story ranges from half a page to five pages long, making it great for a quick read in between assignments or books. Listed with each story is the title and the tribe it originates from.
I originally picked it up thinking I could use some of the stories in a class someday. Before using it in the classroom be sure to analyze it for adult content. Many of the stories are about sex. Despite the mature content, there were a number that I found had potential for including in lesson plans.
