Tales of Tony Great Turtle

The "Tales of Tony Great Turtle", by Roger Robbennolt, author of "Tales of Gletha, the Goat Lady" and "Tales of Hermit Uncle John," "'presents finely crafted stories that entertain as well as afford spiritual insight and a vision of hope. Tony Great Turtle teaches Rog to "breath in the stars" to overcome his rage at his abusive father. He helps Rog to see that he is doing his own Sun Dance, his own process of maturing, which is to be not only his source of inner strength but also his ground for becoming a healer and a hope-bringer. While introducing Rog, and the reader, to the richness of Native American spirituality, it opens him and us to the heart of the Christian mystery inherent in his and our life experiences."
