Many Native American tribes tell stories in winter because other seasons have traditionally been dedicated to growing, gathering, harvesting and hunting food. There’s also a tradition that says stories are told in winter because animals are hibernating then, and they’re less likely to overhear stories told about them; thus, wintertime stories are more respectful.
