Rate this book
A tale of a Shoshone boy and how he deals with a bully.

"This story is a piece of wisdom from the Shoshone people to their children for many, many years. It is a legend of the Shoshone tribe about a boy who lived here [Wyoming] long, long ago...This book shares the blessing of the language of the Shoshone people, who have been proud to call this land their home for hundreds of years. I hope you take the time to learn these words, and to use them when you can."
- Trent Blankenship, Superintendent of Public Instruction (from the Preface)

For the Shoshone words used throughout there is a glossary on page 42. Fifteen of the illustrations have Shoshone phrases. These are listed on page 43 with their English translations.
