A young boy's journal of traveling west and his dream of seeing the buffalo. Karl Issac is a typical boy, leading a typical life - until his family decides to travel into the west, and then everything is new and different, but exciting. A view into a child's life traveling on the open prairie, and a good historical study.

A cute book about a man who helps everyone. He just can't say no and becomes exhausted. In the end, the community recognizes his plight and helps him. A story of caring and friendship and HATS!
(K-2)

When young Karl Isaac heads west with his family in a prairie schooner, he experiences many things but longs to see buffalo.
