My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. Being native myself I saw this and I did not see any books like this when I was growing up. Now as an adult I see the more diverse books coming out for all people. I love this story of the dreamcatcher. I have one hanging next to my bed it is lovely part of the culture. The drawings in this book were whimsical and fun. It helped better weave the tale. It was a quick and easy ready.
My Rating of the Book: 4 Stars
