I’m not one to cry racism, I think it’s way over used. However this book is racist toward the native Americans. There’s a whole chapter about how brave settlers killed attacking Indians. I would have given it 0 stars for that, and the underlying tone of hate toward the Indian. The chapters without Indians were very informative and a fun read for little kids. But in my opinion there’s many other great American history books for little kids that don’t teach hate.
