Return of the Sun

Native American Tales from the Northeast Woodlands

By: Joseph Bruchac

From Back Cover

"These 26 folk tales will be a useful source for read-alouds and storytelling." --- School Library Journal

"These varied tales illustrate both the wealth of humor and the depth of respect for life and earth that are a part of the Indigenous Northeast American People." --- Skipping Stones, A Multicultural Children's Quarterly

"The stories are living things with a life and a mind of their own and great power. They integrate dream with conscious life; this world with the spirit world; humans with four-leggeds, plant beings, and talking stones. They are above all about relations and relationships." --- East West Journal

Joseph Bruchac is part Abenaki Indian. He has won numerous awards for his faithful recreation of Native American legends and folktales.
