pickIn celebration of Indigenous Peoples Day:
In "Shi-shi-etko" the story follows a young American Indian girl before her forced removal from her home to attend the white boarding school. The second story follows her brother at the white school. Both stories start with an author's note for context.
This is an important read for grade schoolers for building understanding and empathy.
