Inhaltsangabe

This beautiful photo-essay captures the essence of the Native American powwow. "The unity of the many tribes engaged in the ceremony, the sense of family, and the cherishing of actively participating children are all themes young people will appreciate. A lively, positive portrayal of contemporary Native Americans."--Kirkus Reviews
