Publisher's Note Anxious
to be given a name as strong and brave as that of his father, a proud
Lakota Sioux grows into manhood, acting with careful deliberation,
determination, and bravery, which eventually earned him his proud new
name: Sitting Bull. “Being named Slow and growing up in the shadow of a
great warrior hardly dwarfed the prospects of this
protagonist…Bruchac’s sensitively told history of Sitting Bull’s
coming-of-age reassures young boys that success comes through effort,
not birth.” --Booklist “Satisfying for its attention to historical and
multicultural issues; stirring in its consummate storytelling.”
--Publishers Weekly “The pictures evoke a sense of timelessness and
distance, possessing an almost mythic quality that befits this glimpse
into history.” --Horn Book
