Tasunka
A Lakota Horse Legend
With imaginative scenes of bright colors and the streaming limbs of horses and Lakota warriors, Donald Montileaux helps preserve the practice of traditional art and oral storytelling. Both a lesson on the abuse of power and a suspenseful story, Tasunka incorporates American history and native legend to create a beautiful book that serves multiple purposes. The Lakota translation completes the work and contributes to the folklorish essence of the book. Ages five to eight.
