Recorded from the Dakota (Ella) Deloria texts, Ikto’mi – the legendary trickster and shape-shifter – returns in this colorful collection of eight stories highlighting his hilarious hijinks and mischief-making. The traditionally-oral Lakota tales of Ikto’mi have been brought to life in bright, bold watercolor illustrations through a grant from the Red Cloud Lakota School in Pine Ridge, South Dakota.
