I'm surprised at how similar so many creation stories are. I wonder how much of that is a result of folk stories subtly changing to fit with the pressures of Christian missionaries — probably some, but I suspect there is also a inherent sameness in many creation stories.

I quite liked the story of Grandfather Sun spending less and less time in the sky because people weren't friendly or grateful with him, that will definitely stick in my memory.

I am grateful for this book, but I do wish it included more stories and talked a little more about the history of the stories. I can understand why it doesn't, though.
