Tales Of Tails From The Blue Heron Ranch

“Whenever I listen to Lev Ropes tell his stories of the Blue Heron Ranch, I always have the feeling that when the storytelling is over and the audience has departed, Lev BECOMES the Coyote, loping away from the city and into the Montana night. I see him sitting at fire's edge surrounded by dozens of animal people, all singing their songs to the stars. Lev's voice is a gentle voice. He eases the listener—and now the reader—into the mystical, playful world of Coyote the creator and the teacher. Lev is a Grandfather in the finest tradition of storytelling, an elder who brings the world of the West to life. His stories invite us all to join him at the Blue Heron Ranch...
