Whispering Wind: Folktales of the Navaho Indians (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781616466275)

"Retained in purest form by the Navaho Indians, these nature legends represent the true reflections of the earliest southwestern Indians about the world as they saw it around them. Navaho nature legends from Navaho lips-these constitute the folk lore of one of the oldest of Indian tribes and captivate with their unusual charm."

Philippa Allen retells several stories first collected in an academic book, Washington Matthews' (1897) Navaho Legends, making them accessible to children, while keeping the distinctive atmosphere of that southwestern people.

Whispering Wind was published in 1930.
