2024 Notable Social Studies Trade Books for Young People (NCSS & CBC)
"Best Middle Grade Book of the Year" by Kirkus Reviews
"Best Poetry Books of 2022" by School Library Journal
Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Award
Through poems that capture the essence of each person's life, acclaimed Native American writer Joseph Bruchac introduces readers to famous indigenous leaders from The Peacemaker in 1000 A.D. to modern day dancer Maria Tallchief and Cherokee chief Wilma Mankiller. Each poem is illustrated by a modern-day tribally enrolled artist.
From Author Joseph Bruchac:
"We have chosen to accompany each poem with artwork from a contemporary Native American artist. Some of these artists are members of the same nation as the person featured in the biographical poem. Their works illustrate contemporary concepts and concerns-many of which are the same as or similar to those of their ancestors. Other poems are accompanied by a Native American artist from another nation whose work connects to the subject of the biography in an important way. Our hope is that these works of art will expand the reader's view of Native American art."
Illustrators Included:
