Great historical fiction that will resonate with young readers. The courage of Red Dove is inspiring!

A very visual tale about a 13 year old girl named Red Dove who has to choose between leaving her family on a reservation to seek a better life for herself and live her wish to go to school or stay and watch them go through difficulties to make ends meet.

She's of mixed heritage, and has such a curiosity for life and is sad to leave her family but eager to get going on her quest.

There are many different characters in this book and the details and visual are plentiful. There's a quick yet relaxed pace in the book and in the creation of all the characters. Red Dove Listen to the Wind is engrossing, detailed sad humbling and eyeopening.

I'm very interested in different cultures and think so many people of all generations could learn a lot from this book.

Thanks to Sonia Antaki, Andrew Bosley and publisher for my ARC in exchange for an honest and voluntary review. 4 stars as the story is excellent as are the beautiful illustrations. I'd love more of those..
