<i>Yumáyk Yumáyk</i> is a collection of 204 Luiseño texts—including texts of songs—narrated by Mrs. Villiana Hyde and translated by Eric Elliott. Among the texts are "The Early Years at Rincón," "Gathering Acorns," "The First Car," "Courtship," "The Girl and Her Pet Coyote," "Plant Uses," "Ravens, Doves, and Flickers as Messengers," "Finding Water," "Chaláwish Song," "Seeing the Táákwish Spirit by Day," and "The Frog and the Coyote." This book is the result of the authors' concern for the survival of Luiseño, a Native American language of Southern California.
