The trickster, Iktomi, is full of himself as he walks along on his way to visit friends and relations in the next village. He tires of carrying his blanket and decides to "give" it to his friend, the boulder. Then, when he realizes he needs the blanket for himself, he goes back to get it. Suddenly, a storm arises. Maybe you've wondered why there are "rocks scattered all over the Great Plains"? Other books by this author include Iktomi and the Berries, Iktomi and the Buffalo Skull, Iktomi and the Buzzard, and Iktomi and the Ducks.
