This legend tells the creation of the Big Dipper. This is a story within story. The book begins with a storyteller telling this story to the young children of a tribe. All of the Cheyenne designs used in the book are authentic. I liked that the illustrator researched Cheyenne designs and used them in the book. This allows children who are reading this book to learn about Indian designs. It exposes them to a culture they might not know of. The theme of this book is being kind and helping others, especially your family. The sister makes elaborate clothes for her brothers and protects her youngest brother. In turn, the youngest brother protects his sister from the buffalos. All of the brothers and sisters escape the herd of buffalo just in time. They join the stars and become the Big Dipper. I found this story to be extremely interesting. I had never heard of the legend of the Big Dipper, so I feel I learned something new. This would be a great story for students to read. An interesting story about both the Native American culture and the creation of the Big Dipper. It speaks of the strength and courage of the girl who left her family to find her seven brothers. Once she found them, they accepted each other immediately and became a family. They had a strong bond that not even the buffalo tribe could shake when they demanded the girl. In their escape, they became the Big Dipper. It is another look into astronomy through the eyes of another culture. To some of us, the stars are only that, stars. To other cultures, the stars are storytellers and people. It is a fascinating concept and to know the stories of stars can make looking into the night sky a different experience.
During her journey to locate her seven brothers, who reside in a distant location from her own, a young girl encounters a number of challenges along the route. https://minicrossword.io/ Está contido em
