Although this is part of the series Cautionary Fables & Fairytales some of these tales are as enlightening and reassuring as some of the fearsome cautionary tales that are included. The collection of traditional tales told by the first people to settle in what are now Canada and the United States is told in graphic novel form by authors and illustrators descended from these first people. As such it’s a wonderful addition to any collection of fables, folklore and fairy tales. An interesting collection of folklore tales from North America. The stories are some of the unheard ones. But, all the stories are not so amazing. The first and the last story were a bit exciting. Graphics are not good enough. Although, the book is a short read and perfect for children. I would only give 3 stars to the book. Had high expectations from the publisher as I have read some other books by them. Stories are not at all creepy enough like they claim. So be ready for a very light read. I usually enjoy the Cautionary Fables and Fairytales series, but this fifth collection just didn't come alive for me as the short stories noodled around in vague and boring ways.
