Two Fast Runners: I really enjoyed this story. I liked that the antelope and deer communicated in this calm and regal manner. I also, liked how the strengths within their environments were shown. It is another origin story that explains why deer have no gall an antelope have no dewclaws.
The Dog and the Root Digger: This is a story about Napi, or Old Man, The character kind of have two sides to him. I found this story really interesting and a little spooky. Basically, Napi and a young man hid themselves by changing into a dog and root digger. They are taken into a families home, ultimately to find the buffalo.
The Buffalo Stone: I liked this story because it focuses around the buffalo. I understand from my Native American classes that buffalos are not only routed in many traditions, but also make up much of the sustenance they need to survive. I really enjoyed this story. It had a very beautiful rythm and message behind it. I think it would be a really great Storytelling post.
