Long before Walt Disney’s Pocahontas came along Potawatomi children had their own heroine – Winnie Two-Shadows. I am a Native American writer/illustrator and this series grew out of stories told to my own Potawatomi granddaughter, Shuly. Although the heroines and heroes are Indian children, all children, and grown-ups too will enjoy these lavishly illustrated original books. They contain a little history, a little language, and a lot of exciting adventure.” [**Note: Potawatomi Fables Calendar’s are also availble.’

Book: Tour of the Florida Territory during the Seminole Wars, 1792-1859.
“I started this web page in 1996 as a short history Florida’s Creek, Seminole, and Miccosukee Indians during their darkest hour: the wars of removal in the first half of the 19th century. Driven out of what is now Alabama and Georgia by the English and Americans, refugees from the Creek Confederacy formed what is today the Miccosukee and Seminole Tribes in Florida. Although it is a tragic story, it is also one of survival because these people still exist and thrive in Florida today.”

The stories we now call legends came from many nations and covered many different themes. Legends were used to teach a lesson, perhaps share a bit of humor, but most importantly to pass on the customs, beliefs and traditions of our people. Each storyteller has their own way of telling their stories so therefore legends change over time.”

“The majority of tales featured here are the original, and each will indicate from which tribe it originates. Tales which were inspired by Native American folklore are also found in this section, but have been marked accordingly.”
Turtle and the Skybowl “Inspired by the Pueblo Indian culture is this clever tale of how the turtle came to earn her shell and the vulture his curved beak. Links to sites inviting you to learn more about the fascinating Pueblo Indian Culture.”
The Dream Horse “(Inspired). Young Billy, visited in his dreams by a beautiful golden Palomino horse, suddenly develops an affinity for naps, since sleep is the way he contacts his new-found friend Pal. Billy’s parents smile over the descriptions of Native American friends his vivid imagination produces. Or is it his imagination?”
Apache: How the Buffalo Were Released on Earth “A powerful being keeps all the buffalo for himself. They’re penned up in the mountains. Coyote wants them free to roam.”
Apache: Creation Story “In the beginning nothing existed; no earth, no sky, no sun, no moon, only darkness was everywhere…”
Apache: The Origin of Fire “Long, long ago, animals and trees talked with each other, but there was no fire at that time. Fox was most clever and he tried to think of a way to create fire for the world.”
Hopi: Yaponcha – The Wind God “Long, long ago, the Hopis were greatly troubled by the wind. It blew and blew and blew and blew — all the time. The Hopis planted their crops, but before the seeds could begin to sprout, the wind blew the soil and seeds away. The people ask the help of two of the five grandsons of Spider Woman.”
Iroquois: How Fire Came To The Six Nations “Three Arrows was a boy of the Mohawk tribe. Although he had not yet seen fourteen winters he was already known among the Iroquois for his skill and daring. He is about to test his bravery and earn a new name.”
Iroquois: The Girl Who Was Not Satisfied With Simple Things “There once was a girl who was not satisfied with simple things. Her parents despaired of ever finding her a husband she would accept. Each man who came was not good enough. “That one was too fat; he will never do.” Or “Did you see how shabby his moccasins were?” Or “I didn’t like the way he spoke.” Such were the things she would say. One day, a handsome stranger arrived. What will she think of him? And who is he really?”
Navajo: At The Rainbow’s End “The beautiful goddess First Woman is captured by an evil giant. She must hide her twin sons to protect them. How will she accomplish this?”
Lakota (Sioux): The Gift Of Corn “A hermit falls asleep and is visited by a mysterious spirit.”
Lakota (Sioux): The Origin of the Prairie Rose “Mother Earth yearns for a bit of beauty on her prairies but the Wind Demon is determined not to let her have it. Who will win?”
