For our fourth story we read "Corn Mother," A Penobscot creation story full of love and sacrifice. It tells of how First Man and First Mother created the people of the earth and what demands were met to keep us, the relations, alive and thriving. It can be found in American Indian Myths and Legends selected and edited by Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz.
