Lauren Castillo.
After herds of buffalo are hunted to the brink of extinction during the late 1800s, Molly begins to raise orphaned buffalo on her own. This quiet fictional story is based on fact and the soft illustrations in muted colors will transport readers back in time to the open fields of Texas. An author's note offers more information about the real Molly. Reading list.
