Three Tribes of Little People, by Robert Perry, the long awaited sequel to his Life with the Little People doesn't disappoint. Robert uses his wonderful story telling ability to describe how the Chickasaws, Choctaws, and the Irish were brought together, accompanied by their magical friends, the Little People of the Indians and the Leprechauns of the Irish who brought them healing and fun. Most of the stories come from the life of Sebena Burris, a Chickasaw-Choctaw elder, for whom, as a young girl stricken with polio, the Little People were a constant source of help and companionship. Dr. Robin Gunning, Chickasaw author Bob tells the story of his early meetings with Chickasaw and Choctaw elders in Oklahoma. These were members of the Burris family who impart to him their tales of life in Mississippi and Indian Territory in Oklahoma, how the Little People contribute to the well-being of Native People. Along the way, you'll learn about docktors, found water, lye soap, and a host of other true lessons for today. Jim Stevens, poet, The Book of Big Dog Town The powerful stories in Three Tribes of Little People illustrates little people with Chickasaw, Choctaw and Irish origins. Written in vividly descriptive language, these stories paint pictures of little people in days gone by and illustrate they are still with us today, aiding the people of our three tribes and sometimes causing mischief along the way. Robert Perry has done a masterful job gathering these tales into a delightful story collection. Rebecca Hatcher Travis, Chickasaw author With the Three Tribes of Little People, Bob Perry captures the essence of tribal culture during the early years in Oklahoma. The stories of the Little People demonstrate how the Creator provides for his people and their needs. The interweaving of the Little People providing knowledge of plants to the "Docktor" was brilliant. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn more about the culture and to have a few laughs at the antics of the Little People with Sebena's family. Cindy Posey Williams, Echota Cherokee Tribe of Alabama Robert Perry's book gave me an interesting insight to native Americans beliefs. The Indians have very much in common with our native people in north of Sweden, Norway, Finland and Russia- the Sami people, in the region they call Sápmi. One fascinating thing with Robert Perry's book about the tales of little people is the similarity to our little people here in Sweden, called "gråtomtar". It was told that only goodharted people saw them. Every farm had their own gråtomte who took good care of the farmers animals. Elisabeth Ornstein, Ulvsby, Sweden
