A traditional story told by Chickasaw elder Pauline Brown is brought to life in The Rabbit and the Doctor. Her story, adapted by Chickasaw Press and illustrated by Brigette McGregor, takes us into the world of the past, when Chickasaws and the animals of the forest could speak to each other. It also teaches a lesson about how tricksters take advantage even of those in desperate need.
