Review # 1 was written on 2013-11-06 00:00:00 Matthew Leahy Not for reading to small children at bedtime. These stories can be quite graphic and often a bit frightening, but they are an excellent look into Hopi culture and religion.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-06-08 00:00:00 Matthew McKenzie I thought I liked fairy tales, but I don't know if I actually don't or if this collection just made me put off by them. Maybe they aren't the best fairy tales, I don't know, but it certainly was a chore to read them all. The main problem is that it's always the same story! Either it's several brothers and the youngest is the clever one, or it's a king abusing someone's service who is helped by a clever animal, or it's a fair maiden saving someone. Isn't there another way to teach moral to kids? Talking about morals, the ending of some tales were outrageous, where the "bad guy" wins in the end after putting lots of people in pain. Sorry, but when I have kids I don't want them to think that's the way to go!
