Fedullo puts aside stereotypes & and discovers his students., June 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: LIGHT OF THE FEATHER (Paperback)
Mick Fedullo's Light of the Feather displays his child-like wonderment of the Indian world as he goes from reservation to reservation teaching students writing and language skills. The openness and acceptance of tribal cultures he expresses help Indian students trust him as he strives to discover more about them. Fedullo values the tribal customs of each group and becomes a better teacher by becoming closely involved with every student. As he travels throughout the southwest and up to Montana, Fedullo learns more about Indian people and helps to bridge the gap between white and non-white people. I highly recommend this book for teachers, students, Indians and non-Indians.

Clear pictures of Native American life, August 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: LIGHT OF THE FEATHER (Paperback)
For anyone wanting to have an insider's view of Native American life read Mick Fedullo's "Light of the Feather". The author tries to clearly explain life within the communities and tries to debunk myths. This book is an excellent overview of why self-determination should continue in the world today. It also provides readers with insights that they otherwise would not have the opportunity to see.
