The Courage of Sarah Noble | 
pickI was looking for a book to read with my adult ESL student, so I asked a librarian for some help. She showed me the Newberry Award section, and this looked like it would work. Based on a true story, an eight year old girl goes with her father to cook for him while he builds a house in the the wilds of Connecticut. Written in 1954, the writing is spare and portrays the relationship between white settlers and the Native Americans.
Controversial⬇️
DivineDiana Considering the time it was written, the book ultimately embraces unity, although there are a few derogatory lines that can encourage discussion. Glad that I read it on Indigenous People‘s Day. (edited) 3y
