The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo

A Child, an Elder, and the Light from an Ancient Sky

By: Kent Nerburn

Narrated by: Peter Berkrot

A haunting dream that will not relent pulls author Kent Nerburn back into the hidden world of Native America, where dreams have meaning, animals are teachers, and the "old ones" still have powers beyond our understanding.

In this moving narrative, we travel through the lands of the Lakota and the Ojibwe, where we encounter a strange little girl with an unnerving connection to the past, a forgotten asylum that history has tried to hide, and the complex, unforgettable characters we have come to know from Neither Wolf nor Dog and The Wolf at Twilight.

Part history, part mystery, part spiritual journey and teaching story, The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo is filled with the profound insight into humanity and Native American culture we have come to expect from Nerburn's journeys. As the American Indian College Fund has stated, once you have encountered Nerburn's stirring evocations of America's high plains and incisive insights into the human heart, "you can never look at the world, or at people, the same way again."

Such a gift

Kent Nerburn books are a true gift.

I’ve enjoyed spending 50 hours with these stories on audio book

Excellent! I highly recommend these 3 books!

Respectfully done and important for all of us to learn. I admire the balance achieved between very difficult and dark subjects, native spirituality and lightness and humor.

Good look at Native Spirituality

I almost gave up half way through. sometimes it was predictable. It seem to end rather than finish.

fantastic read!

Loved the story. I wish Nerburn's books were required reading. So much heart in this journey.

the book never lost sight or focus of the title!

Love the narrators enthusiasm and slight voice changes! definitely happy i chose 2 follow Kents writings....
