The story revolves around a young Native American girl named soft rain and her travels through the trail of tears. This was a dark time in history for a group of people the story kept true to the history but in a way children may understand. It takes this dark event and tells it from a child’s perspective. A good example of a child’s response to the trail of tears was when she complained that she didn’t sign the treaty. Another thing that I loved about the text is that they have several pages dedicated to facts and history about the Cherokee nation. Which any child could use to connect to the text they read and read more if they are interested. A young Native American girl is forced to go with her family along the trail of tears and abandon the life she knew growing up on her family's land. She witnesses the horrors of captivity and learns to become stronger. This book would be a good book to accompany a lesson in American History and to help students understand how a person can go through diversity and come out stronger. This story also helps students understand many of the unfair practices that were put in place against Native Americans. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Tragic story of the life of a young child as she and her mother are taken from the tribe and are told to move with others.
They do not take her blind grandmother.
Loved hearing how they are reunited and that the white children helped clothe and feed them along the trail to their new home.
