The boy who lived with the seals is enchanting and captivating. People consider this Native American lure but it is much more then that. It is full of tradition and culture. It is the mystic story from generations ago about a small boy that accepted the mysterious allure of the sea and it's sea life. The book is filled with majestic photos full of culture. I recommend this book for American children. In today's school there is only black or white, it is sad that Americans have forgotten the race before them. Perhaps through interesting stories like this one they would seek more learning the Red race's culture and history as well as acceptance.
