JUST WISH IT WAS MORE OF A PAGE TURNER,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eagle Song (Puffin Chapters) (Paperback)
Because of the lack of short chapter books with urban contemporary Native American protagonists, all public/school libraries should pick this up - especially for NA kids who have just moved from rural/reservation to the big city. It may work best for a parent and child to read together and discuss.

Eagle on the Peace Tree,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eagle Song (Puffin Chapters) (Paperback)
Danny, an American Indian, has moved to the city. The kids at his school all ignore him or, the ones who do give him any attention, tease and bully him. One day he asked his father for advice about his schoolmates. His father tells him a story about Aionwahta, the hero/peacemaker between all the tribes. He made everything peaceful and turned an enemy into a brother. He grew a pine tree and put an eagle on top of the pine to make sure the peace will never be destroyed again. Danny wants to be just like Aionwahta. Can he turn his enemy into a brother, or at least a friend? This is a story of courage and overcoming obstacles, with the help of his family. Danny uses his courage to try to fix himself and his surroundings.I really enjoyed this book because it was written so "smoothly." You felt like you were watching this story go by through a hidden window.
