Description:

TIPI TALES uses songs and short vignettes to teach the seven sacred laws of Aboriginal spiritual beliefs that make the spirit strong. Through puppetry the series depicts the lives of cousins Sam, Junior, Russell and Elizabeth as they learn the tools of life from the forest, forest animals and their great-grandparents. The forest animals that the cousins encounter embody the seven ancient aboriginal laws: Eagle embodies love; Buffalo embodies respect; Bear embodies courage; Sabe (Bigfoot) embodies honesty; Beaver embodies wisdom; Wolf embodies humility; and Turtle embodies truth. In THE SONG, Elizabeth is upset when Russell and Junior cannot and will not sing her new song. Beaver helps Junior realize he cannot change Elizabeth and he should love her as she is. He also helps Elizabeth change her thinking so they all can play a game everyone enjoys. <14mn 20s>
