I purchased this book for my 6 year old daughter who has an intense interest in American Indians. She wanted to do a lapbook and I found one from homeschoolshare.com to go along with this book. Although not all of the information in the book is true it is a wonderful adventure to read. The illustrations are gorgeous as well. This series of books by these authors are highly recommended to anyone looking for good quality picture books to read to their children.

We've been taking this book out the library for years. We finally bought it. As with all of the books by Ingri and Edgar Parin d'aulaire, the illustrations are beautiful, the stories full of information and the facts true. They are very easy to read but still not wishy-washy. We all learn something everytime we read them. You want to read them over and over. Our children read these for fun. Wonderful.
