Oonomoo the Huron

This story is set in an American Indian camp where a family of an Indian mother, a dutch husband and two boys live. The novel is written in such a way as to amuse and the characters are rather like caricatures in their sketchiness. The father is fat and lazy and has a strong accent when he speaks English. The two boys are simply mischievous boys and the mother with a very long name does the household chores.
