Enchanting

With flute, drums and other instruments, this troupe of storytellers, weave tribal stories about lessons of life. Each story has a meaning about aspects of growing in spirit. The listener is enlightened by tales of magic, star people, animals and birds in the natural world and otherwise. The stories teach the listener of the rewards of courage, gratitude, and love. Each had a different message within the story presented. This is the way the Elders taught the children.

I found listening to this type of presentation relaxing and entertaining. Easy to take in one or more at a session.

Great presentation !

Great stories, just a bit too short.

I could really enjoy the actors. The voices were never too silly or overacting so even as an adult I could enjoy it. Wish it were twice as long!

Not for me

The music and narration were mediocre and always the same. The stories also are all similar. Was hoping for something better to be honest. I was really looking forward to listening to this book while exploring Native American land, but was disappointed. Wasn’t worth the credit in my opinion :( Perhaps better suited for children than adults.
