The Best Indian Book You Can Read,
By A 13 year old reader (McLean, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Soun Tetoken: Nez Perce Boy Tames a Stallion (Amazing Indian Children Series) (Paperback)
I thought this was a very good book. I enjoyed the story because it was breath taking and historical fiction. Even though, not all of the characters were real, this event really took place. This book is about an Indian band who is living peacefully in their valley. But one day, they are made to move out because the white people want to build roads and farms on their land. The Nez Perce tribe is forced to move on a reservation, but instead of going there, they set out on a journey to Canada. Soun, the main character, is an Indian boy who cannot speak because of a shock when he is young. Soun is the main helper. He helps herd the horses. I encourage you to read this book to find out if Soun ever speaks again. It is a history helper and is good to realize what happened back then to real Indian tribes.

I thought that this was a very good book, and even though I am 17, it is still a good book to read. I have almost all of his books, which I got a long time ago. I have always enjoyed reading these kinds of books.

great book for all ages,
By A Customer
When traviling through the Yellowstone and Teton area a while back as a young boy, i picked up a copy of this book. To make a long stroy short,once i started i could not stop. Not only was the historical lessons grand but it was very moving. I actually cried the first couple of times i read it. now over 10 years later i read it every once in a while. Ken is a fantastic writer, and i recomend all his books. Parents and children should read this book. I read it with my grandmother, and at65+ she loved it too.
