Klappentext Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve is of Ponca and Sioux descent and the recipient of the National Humanities Medal. Her many books include The Trickster and the Troll, When Thunders Spoke, and Lana¿s Lakota Moons, all available in Bison Books editions. Thomas Floyd is an artist working in a variety of media from painting to illustration to comic strips and is a graphic designer at Nebraska Educational Telecommunications. "Finally we have a children's book that tells the story of the Ponca people who were for so long a forgotten tribe and presents an Indian hero for teachers to use in the classroom. Sneve captures the unique richness of being Indian and the challenges faced in a changing America as Standing Bear's life evolves. Students will be inspired to find their own heroes through the universal themes of the love of family and home as we celebrate Standing Bear's journey home."--Judi M. gaiashkibos, an enrolled member of the Ponca tribe of Nebraska and the executive director of the Nebraska Commission on Indian Affairs--Judi M. gaiashkibos (03/15/2013) Zusammenfassung Standing Bear died in 1908! but his legacy and influence continue even up to the present.
