Coyote in Love with a Star

(2) K-3 Tales of the People series. Illustrated by Tom Coffin. Ol' Man Coyote leaves the Potawatomi reservation to be Rodent Control Officer at the World Trade Center, where, gazing up at the sky, he falls in love with a star. Later, the star drops him--literally--and he falls, creating the Reservoir in Central Park. Rich paintings convey Coyote's antics in this modern retelling sprinkled with references to Native culture. Only brief information is given about the tale's origin. Glos.
