Life and Death of Crazy Horse (utgåvan 1997)

jB

I would use this book in an upper elementary, middle or high school classrooms. I think this book would be best for these grade levels because of the difficulty level of the book and the content of the book as well. I would use this book as apart of a lesson about native American history. ( )

This moving biography recounts Crazy Horse's rise to greatness as a Sioux warrior, as well as the hardships and battles his people endured trying to save their land. Historical illustrations by Crazy Horse's cousin, Amos Bad Heart Bull, accompany the text.

I can't not stress enough how beautiful the illustrations are in this book, along with the story being told. It is extremely important the children be made aware of the struggle to was involved in the government take over of native american land in the United States. It is onderful to read about one mans determination and will to fight for what he believed in. This is a message the could be useful for adults and children.
