Review # 1 was written on 2018-08-28 00:00:00 Jason Austin I found the art very beautiful. I find the story touching. From the author: "These stories are not simply entertainment: they had power to strengthen the bond with the herds, and to encourage the herds to continue to give themselves so that the people could live. It was felt that retelling the story had power to bring about change within each of us." A man falls for a woman from the buffalo tribe. She is part animal so his tribe does not accepts them and they are told to leave. Pretty harsh. The husband has a true heart and he does not give up. He follows them to live with them back to the buffalo heard where he is tested. Because his son loves him, he gives him hints along the way that save his life over and over. There is a beauty to the story. It is a life that is past and not lived much anymore. I have been to a Sundance and these are tough people. I'm glad they shared their story with us and it's nice to read. The kids gave this book 3 stars. The niece had some issues with the something where she said it was half good and half not good. She would not elaborate more.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-06-22 00:00:00 Janna Kopacki Goble takes inspiration from the oral tales of several tribes of American Indians from the great plains and their belief in the connection between the Buffalo and their people. I love how this story emphasizes the connection between people and nature while developing a story of a woman who can transform from a Buffalo. It is also a story about how fickle humans can be, but the love and dedication of one man saves the relationship with the buffalo for all eternity. A great story.
