This collection of traditional Lakota stories is focused on children of all nations and races. The stories are a giveaway, a means of returning the gift idea of the stories preserved by Lakota elders and grandparents to pass on the traditions and perspectives of the people. These stories, usually told on winter evenings, are designed to teach proper behavior or a moral lesson, but minus the narrow moralizing of several familiar fables. Good and evil are neither apparent nor polarized, and the multidimensional characters must face difficult choices, much like ones that children and adults encounter in today's day. Storyteller Dovie Thomason has carefully selected seven timeless Lakota stories to instruct and entertain youngsters, and their parents, too.
