What I Think About This Book:

          This is another okay book. I would check out a lot more books before I would come to this one.

From The Book:

Where is your man? the Crow was signing.

Not Far, Celou saw her mother sign back. Just over there.

 She pointed in the direction of the big camp. One of the Crow laughed a brittle, short sound. He said something in his own language, then made a gesture that Celou knew all too well. Blackfoot.

I would recommend this series of books for youth girls that like history. (I am obviously not a big fan of history, but it’s good if you do)

Enjoy,
