Produktbeschreibung

This story goes back and forth between the present and the past.

Noah is a modern-day boy living in Cape Cod, Massachusetts with his parents and an annoying older brother. Working with his good friend, Jack, they are in a science club with ideas to make the world a better place. After Noah sees a video on whale killing, he decides he must do something to stop it. He asks Jack to help him.

In 1851, Miles Brady lived in Nantucket, Massachusetts with his mother and father. Nantucket was the whaling capital of the world at that time. Boys at fourteen would leave their homes and set out to work on whaling ships. They returned home after four years. Miles didn't want to be a whaler, but his father wanted him to go to sea.

Both Miles and Noah had their own dreams and ideas. Will either boy succeed ?

Autorenporträt

The authors of this book worked together to bring a story of Lakota culture and history to all children, both native and non-native.

Philomine Lakota and Carol Morosco are the same age. They are teachers and grandmothers. Philomine is a native Lakota who teaches language and culture to the students of Red Cloud School in South Dakota. Carol Morosco is a non-native retired teacher who worked in Virginia schools for many years.

They came together to write an historical fiction book featuring words from the Lakota language. It's their hope this book reaches children from all backgrounds and cultures and fosters an understanding and appreciation of our many similarities and differences
