Summary: Honoring Sacajawea, for young readers
Comment: I was looking for a good book about Sacajawea to give my grandchildren, since I've been dispensing the new gold dollars with her image to them for birthdays. This is written in the first person, as if the famous Indian woman is telling a story to her son, "Pomp." She was kidnapped from her Shoshoni tribe at a young age, then won in a gambling game by a French trader. The trader Charbonneau was hired by Lewis and Clark as an interpreter for their great expedition in the Louisiana Territory. Called Janey by the white men, the teenager Sacajawea proves very valuable to the party, and is able to lead them to her people in the West. The story is filled with small details about life on the trail:the hardship of traveling in a canoe,hunting bears,eating unusual foods. The two nine year olds to whom I gave this book enjoyed it very much as it moved along well, with times of suspense (would Sacajawea see her people again?)
