From AudioFile

Rabbit Ears pairs this story with a elebrated actor and adds visually appealing picture book to accompany it. The Native American stories may be new to listeners, but Graham Greene gives a clear and polished reading. Paul McCandless's accompaniment to Squanto and the First Thanksgiving adds a haunting, melodic atmosphere reinforcing the sadness of Squanto's losing his heritage. R.F.W.
