6 X 9 inches, 80 pages

BY THE AUTHOR OF THE VERY SUCCESSFUL Anytime Stories, this new collection of short stories is drawn from many tribes, customs and ceremonies of the North American indian. The purpose of these stories is to heighten our consciousness of how they are told; to do this Leo Sawicki shows us their origins, their applications, and how audiences might relate to them.

The stories also provide us with objects of symbolism to ignite our imaginations, including an origami orb, a mystic warrior's shield, papier-mâché masks of endangered species, a medicine wheel, reports and observations on plants, and our relationship with the Earth.
