STARRED REVIEW
"This powerful introduction to a great warrior and leader invites readers to ponder the meaning of 'hero'"

* Kirkus Reviews *
As Jimmy and his grandfather’s journey comes to an end, the boy has gained much more than a history lesson—he learns a great deal about courage, sacrifice, and the ties that connect him to his ancestors. VERDICT A moving narrative that should be required reading for all students of American history. * School Library Journal *
“Follow the geography of Crazy Horse’s life…was instrumental in the most significant Native American military victory against the white invaders.” * Publishers Weekly *
“It provides insights and stories that you don't get from academic historians…There is nothing like it.” * Debbie Reese, American Indians in Children's Literature *
