I thought I had read this before but I didn‘t remember it. Very sad and depressing.

Profound insight into tribal philosophy.

A moving middle-grade picture-book retelling of the vision of Black Elk, an Oglala Lakota prophet and medicine man who first shared his story with the world in 1932, in “Black Elk Speaks.“ Lakota picture-book artist S.D. Nelson does a fabulous job with his retelling, pairing a moving text with gorgeous artwork and contemporaneous photography. Beautiful!

AbigailAdams26 From Black Elk's Vision:

“Another Grandfather handed me a wooden cup filled with water and said, “This is the power to give life that is granted to all.“ Next he handed me a bow and arrows and said, “This is the power to destroy that is given to all.“ Everyone must choose to walk with the water of life or the weapon of destruction.“

My #december TBR is going to be all challenge books I think. Time to buckle down. The good news is after I finish my current audiobook, I only have one book to go for #booked2018 (and if anyone has a suggestion for #underdogMC I am all ears!)

As for #pop18 I probably have 6-7 prompts to go. We‘re also having a family mark-up book club so I have to finalize and read my choice for that.

Wish me luck!! #winterwonderland

This book is amazing! Black Elk's life was incredible. Tragic, beautiful, yet still hopeful. Everyone should learn about this man's amazing life and legacy.
