WORTH A LOOK!
“On
the winter day Little Hawk is sent into the woods alone, he can take only a bow
and arrows, his handcrafted tomahawk, and the amazing metal knife his father
traded for with the new white settlers. If Little Hawk survives three moons by
himself, he will be a man.”
“John Wakely is only ten when his father dies,
but he has already experienced the warmth and friendship of the nearby tribes.
Yet his fellow colonists aren't as accepting of the native people. ..
His
friendship with Little Hawk will put both boys in grave danger.”
The intertwining stories of
Little Hawk and John Wakely are a fascinating tale of friendship and an
eye-opening look at the history of our nation. Newbery Medalist Susan Cooper
also includes a timeline and an author's note that discusses the historical
context of this important and moving novel.
*This great book is located in our Juvenile
