Ze-do has returned from 3 years at a government boarding school, & he must now learn & relearn the ways of his people. In the 21 chapters, the boy -- & the reader -- learns from his grandfather the important lessons of Zuni life through the seasons -- from prayer sticks, planting, & games to dancing, rituals, & Shalako.

Originally pub. in 1945 by the Haskell Inst. in KS, this delightful & valuable resource will intrigue readers of all ages.
