We love our traditional Cherokee stories! Roy Boney, who oversees the Cherokee Nation Language department, has created an illustrated version of the story of the Cherokees fleeing their home island on canoes. The narration is by Anna Sixkiller, and was originally recorded for an exhibit at the Cherokee National History Museum in downtown Tahlequah. We hope you enjoy this story: | Cherokee Nation
