(4) K-3 Illustrated by Wendell Minor. Turner imagines the elderly chief, imprisoned, recalling his initiation into manhood and the proud and tragic tale of his people's subjugation by the white man. The first-person narration, though descriptive, is stilted. Some of the accompanying paintings showing sweeping vistas and quiet, thoughtful portraits are based on existing images of Sitting Bull. An author's note provides additional (though vague) history.
