 Many of our people in the far north tell the same legend to our people but it sounds so much better in Dene than when it's translating it, but this is the way the legend goes It was winter and many native people Were camped together one evening to hurt a little baby crying by the lake shore Some young girls ran to look for the baby But as they came closer to the spot the crying stopped this happened three times The fourth time An old lady came to see what was the matter She walked around trying to find out where the song was coming from It seemed to come from in front of her But she could see nothing but dear droppings When she's gathered them She saw a baby which was only about the inch a few inches Like he said You know your thumb glove that was the size of this baby She picked him up and put her him in her mitt and Went back to camp the old lady Had several sons But she decided to raise this little boy as well and call him that's an A&S shot One day her sons went hunting When they returned But Sunayana shot asked his grandmother for the front feet of the smallest deer That his uncles had killed The boy was given the feet to eat and he was so happy After Several another successful hunt the boy once again asked for the front teeth of the smallest deer The hunters would not give him to him for he They wanted the rest of their feet for their own children And he was offered another part When the grandmother returned with Without the feet, but Sunayana shot was very angry And you see how angry he is here Yeah What did they tell you but Sunayana shot asked his grandma His grandmother replied they said you were not the only child in the camp who wanted them This time you have to have another part of that deer But Sunayana shot just because says just because I'm small They have insulted me Now I will starve them when the people heard this they became very angry We will see if the boy can make a start They said the next day They moved away leaving but Sunayana shot and her the grandma all by themselves But Sunayana shot told his grandmother to cut some small branches and put them in the fireplace for abundance of each of the abandoned lodge When they have completed the hunt She was to tell him a little later The grandmother came to him and said the branches and your uncle's lodges Have burned in the shape of deer hooves And all the other lodges the remains are round little stones This means that my uncle shall always have deer, but the others will only find stones And they will soon die The grandmother was so also afraid of starving But Sunayana shot saw This and he says to his grandmother as long as I can be with you. We will never starve She lifted them out on her back and they set off the search of food By the middle of the day They came to a small muddy lake Stop here and fish But Sunayana shot told his grandma And his grandma said here in this mud Why there's nothing but worms in this swamp His grandmother said she lowered the fish hook into the water and a large Jackfish came up But he didn't bite but Sunayana But Sunayana shot said lure the hook again grandma She did and so caught another Black trout That's good. He said now. Let's build a lodge. We will camp here and prepare the fire for make some dry fish She did The boy went The grandmother began to cry and she was all alone Then she heard a little noise out there from the lodge NK, but Sunayana shot all covered with ice Grandma, but Sunayana shot says to his grandma. I was afraid that you left me, too Grandma as long as I'm here. We will never Starve and I will never leave you. He told her to take off his belt Inside His coat she found many deer tongue tips He had killed the deer by biting off their tongue What looked like ice covering him was foam from the mouth Remember that Sunayana shot was just very very little and that was the only way he could kill The next morning he says she says he says to his grandma Let's wait. Let's go where I had killed the deer The first one we see you will dry and pound for me Gather their grease, but don't eat any yourself yet grandma They set off and soon came to a lake there on the ice lay the deer The grandmother got busy setting up the lodge preparing for to prepare the meat The boy went away to look for his uncles He found their lodges on the other side of the lake The two uncles sad fishing there was no other people there Only the families that his uncles had left But Sunayana shot hit himself Took off his new shoes Turned into a deer Then he walked out there where the hooks lay in the water He pawed the ice Softly and then the uncles Saw this and said that's strange That little deer is playing with our hooks says at one of the uncles Do you remember that queer little boy our mother had? Maybe it's a medicine man and he turned himself into a deer and now he's here to laugh at us Let's track him When they looked up and saw the small deer had disappeared They followed his trail into a patch of pine trees There the tracks stop and the snow shoe marks on the snow Following they came across the lake where this saw the spruce lodge Then they found their mother that's an a nation and that's an a nation They also saw the piles of meat and fat Soon after the arrival of the Sun's the old Lady the mother felt sick and she passed away That's an a nation turn into a deer again and disappeared So you see no matter how small you are That you think you are You can do just about anything in life So there's a lesson in everything that the legends tell us Legends teach us a lesson Stories have an ending When you tell about Cinderella there's always an ending ah Went off with the prince and left happily ever after but legends They tell you a lesson of the things and life itself So my teacher for listening to me
