Chicora and the Little People "Listen!" Chicora pleaded. "Last night, I opened my eyes and saw tiny hands reaching through the lodge flap. I screamed, 'Leave me alone!' and the little hands disappeared." The legend of Chicora and the Little People: The Legend of the Indian Corn, begins long ago in the time known as the Moon of the Turning Leaves. Chicora, a young Lumbee girl, is awakened from her sleep by gruff giggling and little hands reaching through the flap of her home lodge. She attempts to tell the villagers of the appearance of the little people and the new corn. How can Chicora convince her tribe of the truth? Watercolor paintings wonderfully complete the telling of this Lumbee legend of trust and courage.
