Children's Literature - Linda Kelly

This is a vivid and colorful children's version of a soldier's adventure on the Western Plains in 1864. Officer John Dunbar arrives with only his horse. He quickly learns about his neighbors-a Sioux tribe. The knowledge translates into respect for the Indian life-style and his being renamed "Dances with Wolves" and adopted into the tribe. Great photographs from the movie version help the story come alive.
