IKTOMI AND THE BUFFALO SKULL

: A Plains Indian Story

by Paul Goble

Pub Date: March 1st, 1991

Publisher: Orchard

Fourth of Goble's books about the shameless trickster—and as meticulously sourced and beautifully illustrated as the others. Here; en route to show off his new clothes to his girlfriends, Iktomi gets his head caught in a skull—where it remains until his wife simultaneously chastises and frees him. The story also features a Mouse powwow (in the skull), music included.
