Quotes from or about Paul Goble “Goble takes his place not alongside, but a step ahead of those other white writers of children's stories who, knowingly or not, have long trivialized the rather sophisticated notions the Lakotas have held about the universe for thousands of years.” ~ Elizabeth Cook-Lynn Lakota Author and Poet & Crow Creek Tribal Member

Quotes from or about Paul Goble “His art is tremendous because he is able to recreate the traditional forms with great accuracy and detail. The designs he draws are completely authentic and his colors are the same ones that were used by the old-timers before the reservation days. He is able to recreate the spirit of the old stories with his illustrations and his words.” —Joe Medicine Crow, Crow Tribal Historian, and oldest living member of the Crow Tribe “[Goble's work] is a marriage of authentic design and contemporary artistry…It succeeds beautifully.” —The New York Times

Quotes from or about Paul Goble In the author's note to the Bison edition of Brave Eagle's Account of the Fetterman Fight (1992) Goble said this: "I wrote the book for Indian children because I wanted them to know about and to feel proud of the courage of their ancestors. I have written all my books primarily with Indian children in mind..." “Assuming, apparently, along with many anthropologists, that we have so lost our traditions, cultures and histories that we must be taught them by a white person. There is no reconciliation for us to the things that have been done to us, to the things that are believed about us, to the fact that, even now, there is nothing of ours that is not fair game. If some white person wants it, there is nothing precious or sacred enough not to be touched. Is it necessary to say, in the 21st Century, that this is not right?” ~Doris Seale is Santee/Cree/Abenaki
