love this book

I had this book as a child - one of my favs. Arrived as described and quickly!

warm story of history and remembrance

This book is told in such a captivating tone by Ms. Dragonwagon and beautifully illustrated by Jerry Pinkney. The story will warm the heart of a "child" at any age. I recommend you read it regularly.

Wonderful Book!

I really found this book interesting and intruiging. A great book to use in a unit on archeology or communities. Very absorbing and different.
