Schoolcraft immersed himself in the legends and lore of Native American Indians. For thirty years he lived among Indian tribes in the West and around the Great Lakes, where night after night he listened to master storytellers weave spellbinding tales around the dancing embers of lodge fires. Carefully chosen from the many legends Schoolcraft heard, this collection presents nineteen fables brimming with myth and magic. Originally part of the oral tradition and passed down to generations of Native American children, they have been lovingly written down to spark the imaginations of modern generations. Open the pages of this collection and enter a world where moccasins dance under a mysterious spell...where a little boy sets a snare for the burning sun...and where an old Toad Woman dares to steal a baby. Filled with unforgettable adventures readers of every age will cherish, The Enchanted Moccasins and Other Native American Legends includes such stories as: • Gray Eagle and His Five Brothers • Leelinau, the Lost Daughter • The Origin of the Robin • The Winter Spirit and His Visitor • He of the Little Shell • White Feather and the Six Giants ...and many others. Historically rich and exciting, this treasury opens new vistas onto ancient Indian lore.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9780486460147","publication_date":"20070626","publisher":"Dover Publications","slug":"the-enchanted-moccasins-and-other-native-american-legends","subtitle":"Kindle Edition","title":"The Enchanted Moccasins and Other Native American Legends"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"JUV011040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"US: Native American Stories","score":0.8253,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JNF018040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Native American Life (U.S.)","score":0.8205,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JUV030140","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Indigenous Teachings","score":0.808,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"hint":[{"bisac_code":"JUV011040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"US: Native American Stories","score":0.8253,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JNF018040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Native American Life (U.S.)","score":0.8205,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JUV030140","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Indigenous Teachings","score":0.808,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"JUV011040","confidence_band":"high","label":"US: Native American Stories","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"US: Native American Stories","score":0.8253,"slug":"us-native-american-stories"},{"label":"Native American Life (U.S.)","score":0.8205,"slug":"native-american-life-u-s"},{"label":"Indigenous Teachings","score":0.808,"slug":"indigenous-teachings"}],"reader_fit":["Good for readers interested in Native American legends and ancient lore","Readers seeking imaginative tales of myth and magic"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Lori Marie Carlson"],"book_id":"9780066239576","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780066239576.jpg?v=d8945e3a9917a34b","score":0.7554,"title":"Moccasin Thunder","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780066239576"},{"authors":["Joseph Bruchac"],"book_id":"9781555912123","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781555912123.jpg?v=a084599030bd30d7","score":0.7349,"title":"Native Plant Stories","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781555912123"},{"authors":["Michael Caduto","Joseph Bruchac"],"book_id":"9781555910945","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781555910945.jpg?v=32511f9b43f4c96a","score":0.7343,"title":"Native American Stories","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781555910945"},{"authors":["Hitakonanu'laxk (Tree Beard)"],"book_id":"9781623717872","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781623717872.jpg?v=8ed0e2d4827f3f4a","score":0.7288,"title":"The Grandfathers Speak","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781623717872"},{"authors":["Joseph Bruchac","James Bruchac"],"book_id":"9781555919795","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781555919795.jpg?v=a724fee6dc387d19","score":0.7178,"title":"Native American Games and Stories","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781555919795"},{"authors":["Mary Pope Osborne"],"book_id":"9780679800897","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780679800897.jpg?v=15b3f0f2bcf41e0c","score":0.7165,"title":"American Tall Tales","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780679800897"},{"authors":["Richard Young","Judy Dockrey Young"],"book_id":"9780874833096","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780874833096.jpg?v=2a249357fd96d371","score":0.7118,"title":"African-american Folktales","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780874833096"}],"topics":[{"evidence_refs":["keyword:myth and magic"],"label":"Magic","score":0.0314,"slug":"magic"},{"evidence_refs":["phrase_map_match"],"label":"Short Stories","score":0.0216,"slug":"short-story"},{"evidence_refs":["phrase_map_match"],"label":"Book Club","score":0.0215,"slug":"book-club"}],"what_you_get":["Themes: Native American legends, Myth and magic, Oral storytelling.","Story elements: Enchanted objects, Supernatural beings, Adventures with magical forces.","Themes: Magic, Short Stories, Book Club."]},"llm_signals":{"confidence":0.88,"pacing":"unknown","reader_fit":["Readers interested in Native American legends and ancient lore","Readers seeking imaginative tales of myth and magic"],"themes":["Native American legends","Myth and magic","Oral storytelling"],"tropes":["Enchanted objects","Supernatural beings","Adventures with magical forces"]},"source_presence":{"amazon":true,"book_detail":true,"goodreads":true,"llm_signals":true,"similarity_seed":true},"stats":{"amazon_ratings_count":17,"goodreads_ratings_count":14,"goodreads_reviews_count":3,"quality_score":0.8457}}
