INTRODUCTION

Keokee the Cherokee Boy is a children’s book targeting children eight to twelve years old. The book consists of a series of short stories revolving around the life of Keokee, a ten-year-old Cherokee boy, who lives in what is known today as the Great Smoky Mountains near Oconaluftee, North Carolina. His parents are Stonega (father) and Cheoah (mother). Keokee is an adventurous little boy who interacts with wildlife during his adventures and, in the course of doing so, becomes friends with three animals who teach him valuable lessons of life. Soco, the Otter, Ka-gu, the Crow, and Wayah, the Wolf, become Keokee’s friend, guide, and protector as he goes on exciting adventures. Through his interactions with them, he learns to respect nature and becomes something more than just a little Cherokee boy.
