Spider Spins a Story, May 30, 2002 Reviewer: D L Fisher from Kingwood, TX United States Spider Spins a Story connects Native American tribes together with 14 various tales, all involving a spider. Preceding each legend is a brief history and description of the tribe associated with each story. Muskogee, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Hopi, Cherokee, Navajo, and Osage tribes, as well as others, are mentioned in the book. Full of colorful, gorgeous illustrations by 6 Native American artists, the book is also endorsed by tribal authorities. It appeals to both children and adults with its wonderful storytelling of Native American customs and lore. It is also a great reference to the past history and beliefs of Native American life. The brilliant colors used in the illustrations are particularly appealing and remind the reader of fine Native American art. The Gilcrease Museum, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was an excellent choice for the detailed research needed to write this spectacular book. Spider Spins a Story is a perfect gift for all ages. also found this, and this was only the first page of many, http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/9637/legends.htm <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/9637/legends.htm">Plains Indian Legends, Myths and Heros</A> just remembered the great book Ananszi the spider , also (African tale adaptation) Hope this helps, Christine Besack :) ---
