My Life on the Trail of Tears (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781538203095)

Young readers will learn history through the fictional journal entries of Awenasa, a young Cherokee girl. This book communicates history through powerful emotions, encouraging readers to thoughtfully reflect on the plight of the natives of North America. Fact boxes throughout the text illuminate important historical points. At the end of the book, a table of powerful statistics exposes the incredible reality of these heartbreaking decades in American history.
