Bearpaw

Collection

By: Petra Horst

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Once upon a time… that’s how every story starts when the wise old Bearpaw gathers his listeners around the campfire. His tales are full of incredible events, strange encounters, and extraordinary characters—both human and animal. Bearpaw has heard and lived through countless stories because he’s old and wise, with a lifetime of experiences to share. Through his stories, he passes on this wisdom to the younger generations.
For Native American tribes and many cultures worldwide, storytelling has always been a way to keep their history alive. In our modern world, we might chuckle at this, wondering how something not written down in big history books or encyclopedias can be true. But maybe we should remember that our own stories were once shared around the fire, passed from grandparents to grandkids.
These stories are about life itself, perfect for kids 9 and up, though they’re timeless enough for anyone.
