Coyote, the trickster in Native American lore, doesn't care that it's Christmas - he just cares that he's hungry. In order to trick a family out of their Christmas dinner, Coyote dresses up as Father Christmas and offers a sack full of straw for presents in return for a warm meal. Imagine his surprise when his sack turns in to the perfect gifts - and the trickster becomes the tricked! Based on traditional Native American stories about the trickster Coyote, and illustrated by the unique S.D. Nelson, this is a perfect Christmas story.
