Summary: Kokopelli's flute/ Kelly M.
Comment: I gave Kokopelli's Flute a five star because it a great book!It is also a good book if you are studying Native Americans. There is alot of information about the South West. I would recommend this book for third grade and up.It is confusing and very mysterious. You will learn about desert animals, desert plants,and an ancient person named Kokopelli. There are many facts about a lot of anceint things, such as pictographs, petroglyphs, medicine man, and their ancient crops. The book is about a boy named Tepary [The Human Bean] and his adventures. He meets a man named Cricket, who becomes a good friend. He also meets some clever but mean Pot Hunters, who Tepary doesn't like! If you like Native Americans, the Anassazi Tribe, the Pueblo tribe and adventures you would like this book! If you read this book you will be in a whole new great world! I hope you read this book.

Summary: Kokopelli's Flute Review
Comment: Kokopelli's Flute was a great book! There was lots of mysterious thngs going on in the book. I'd recommend this book for ages 9+. I wouldn't recommend this book to ages 8 and younger because it takes a lot of thinking,and many things are going at once. It's about a boy named Tepary that goes into the ruins that belong to the Anasazi,and finds interesting but not very thoughtful POTHUNTERS!! Read the book and find out what happens to the pothunters. I give this a four star because,because it is hard to undrestand in some parts(confusing) but clear at the end. I hope you read this book.

Summary: 7th grade book report
Comment: In the moonlight of a total eclipse, young Tepary Jones's first lunar eclipse, a tragedy occurred. The last untouched Indian site was being robbed of priceless pottery. Two pothunters had come to rob the picture house. Though suspicious, Tep undertakes to run them off.
The superstitious pothunters are easily driven away. After an owl hoot, Tep lit a tumbleweed and dropped it over the cliff, causing it to burn away in the air sending them running. When he took a closer look at the dig, he found a basket containing ancient medicine and an eagle bone flute. Though he knew better, Tep put the flute to his lips and blew one magical note. He laughed, watching a wood rat coming to hear the music. The next morning the famous Mr. K, a secret botanist, sent another package containing once again beans for the seed farm. Among the package of beans were also strange types of gourd that will become life saving in the future. After a hard day's work planting the seeds, Tep goes back to his room to bed and watches his pet opossum come through a hole in the roof. As the sun goes down Tep feels funny, looks at his hands and comprehends he has turned into a wood rat. Remembering that Wood rats are an opossum's main diet, Tep was almost eaten by his pet. Tep's inquisitive single note on the eagle bone flute had turned him into the rat by night.
An epidemic virus that is carried by pack rats and crossed transmitted to humans who die from the virus is sweeping the desert. The only cure for the virus is the medicine Tep found in the ancient basket. Tep, being a wood rat in size, is unable to retrieve the medicine. Taking the flute from the basket in desperation, Tep breaks the code with three blows on the flute and returns to human form. This allows him to carry the medicine back and save the day.
Kokopelli's Flute, named for the one Tep found in the basket, is a twisted story of heroism. I found the story enchantingly good. I recommend this book.
