Great California children's book
Published by Sallison , 3 years ago
I really enjoyed how they introduced each animal character. Very cute story and loved all the Miwok words.
A great California Indian tale
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As a fourth grade teacher in California, I have the pleasure of teaching California history. This book is a great retelling of an old Miwok Indian legend set in Yosemite Valley. Locals, Robert and Daniel San Souci write and illustrate a fun story that tells of the formation of El Capitan in Yosemite. It also teaches that each individual, regardless of size can make a difference. At the end of the book is information on the Miwok tribe and a helpful list of related readings and web sites. The students love the book and it is a fun way to present a California tribe's legend.
