Long before modern borders split Abenaki territory between Quebec and northern New England, storytellers passed down the misadventures of Azeban the raccoon. He isn't a dark figure in tribal lore, but a restless trickster whose petty greed and endless curiosity constantly get him into trouble. From Odanak along the Saint-François River down to the woods of Vermont and Maine, elders used his hilarious failures to teach kids humility through laughter. Azeban reminds us that slipping up is simply part of life - and usually worth a good laugh.
