Description: Native American children's folktale literature 2 HC (Hopi and Navajo.) Two traditional stories from two Native American Indian Cultures are grouped to delight and also save shipping charges. 1) The Mouse Couple: A Hopi Folktale Retold by Ekkehart Malotki and Illustrated by Michael Lacapa is 56-page pre-owned FIRST EDITION hardcover that is in like new condition. "The objective of this book is two-fold. First, it preserves an authentic folktale in an age when not only is the art of storytelling sharply declining throughout the world, but whole bodies of oral tradition are vanishing into oblivion. Second, it attempts to fill a perceived void in the availability of quality children's literature based on ethnic sources." Author "Ekkehart Malotki is a philologist and linguist. ...His entire research is devoted to analyzing and preserving Hopi language and culture..." 2) Eagle Boy Navajo Legend retold by Gerald Hausman has a dust jacket. The pre-owned hardcover book condition is very good.. It would be like new except for the rippled edges of the dust jacket with some wear and the previous owner's blackened out name on the title page. See photographs. All pages in both books are intact and without marks.
