Description
The True Story of Sitting Bull from multi-award-winning creator Joseph Bruchac.
Anxious to be given a reputation as strong and brave as that of his father, a proud Lakota Sioux grows into manhood, acting with careful deliberation, determination, and bravado, which sooner or later earned him his proud new name: Sitting Bull.
An ALA Notable Book
“Being named Slow and growing up within the shadow of a really perfect warrior hardly dwarfed the prospects of this protagonist: he grew as much as be Sitting Bull. Bruchac’s sensitively told story of Sitting Bull’s coming-of-age reassures young boys that luck comes via effort, no longer birth.” —Booklist
