Girl of the Shining Mountains: Sacagawea's Story

(4) 4-6 Sacagawea relates her early life and the Lewis and Clark expedition to her son, who was two months old when they set out for the Pacific. The switches between the framing device and Sacagawea's embedded first-person narration are unnecessary and clumsy, but the authors' research is smoothly incorporated, and Sacagawea's story cannot fail to seize the imagination.
