Read aloud to the kids for school. This book took us a while to read, both because of its length and because it is heavy in content. But it was extremely well written and engaging to read, if a little wordy at times. Having studied a lot about the treatment of Native Americans this year, this book detailed the era of Civil War time through the beginning of the 20th century in a way that made connections to past and present in helpful ways. It raised a lot of good discussion questions for us, and didn’t feel like an adaptation (we’ve read a few really boring adaptations).
