(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Shonto Begay & Shonto Begay. Eleven-year-old Alice, a Navajo child, describes the events and feelings that define her year. Told in blank verse, the story is both informative and emotionally satisfying. Readers gain a strong sense of the culture of the Navajo people and come to know one observant, sensitive child. This new edition includes textured paintings by Navajo illustrator Begay that are as warm as the text.
