I purchased several of Basil Johnston's books on Ojibwe/Anishinaabe culture, trying to piece together different stories I'd heard as a child (my Aunt's a librarian and often gave me books on different topics, and one of them included a book on Native teachings and stories–which spurred me on a journey of interest in other cultures). Of all his books, this is my favorite – not only did he consolidate the different stories into a very digestible format, but he is a masterful storyteller.
