When his daughter visited him in prison and he says she was the first woman he had seen in twenty-five years - that blew my mind. One of the great English language writers of the 20th century; leaves Dumas, Paul Brickhill and Epictetus in the dust.

Possibly as authentic an account as you'll ever see of life in a maximum security prison. Highly recommended.

I read this book aloud to my children as part of our studies on Native Nations.

This book is part of the Discovering Canada series. I found that the content was interesting, and I liked that the book included some suggestions for hands-on activities. The language is more suitable for older children (recommended reading level is ages 9-12), so it was a good fit for my 9 year-old daughter. Her favourite parts of the book were the legends and myths of the different native tribes.

The detailed black and white illustrations on each two-page spread were my favourite part of the book!

MY RATING: 3 stars! It was good! I enjoyed it!
