Chosen as a Caldecott Honor book in 1942 - other titles chosen that year include In My Mother's House, Paddle-to-the-Sea and Nothing At All - this title is very much a product of its times, reflecting the heightened levels of nationalistic feeling during the World War II era, as well as some of the outdated notions of non-European peoples abroad in the culture during that period. The page on the "Redskins," in particular, made me cringe. That said, it was interesting to see a book written by Maud and Miska Petersham themselves, as I am familiar with them primarily through their illustrations for other authors' books, from Elizabeth Cleveland Miller's Pran Of Albania, which was a Newbery Honor Book in 1930, to Olive Beaupré Miller's gorgeous collection, Tales Told in Holland. I enjoy the Petershams' vividly colorful artwork - one of the copies of Heidi that I own is illustrated by them - so I was appreciative on that score, even though I found the text less-than-pleasing. Recommended primarily to Caldecott completists, and to fans of Maud and Miska Petersham. ( )
