Zuni Tales is a book written by Elsie Clews Parsons that documents the oral traditions and stories of the Zuni people, a Native American tribe located in western New Mexico.

The book includes a collection of tales that cover a wide range of topics, including creation myths, animal fables, and legends of heroic figures.
