{"product_id":"the-legend-of-minnesota-kathy-jo-wargin-9781585362622","title":"The Legend of Minnesota","description":"The definition of the word \"Minnesota\" is known to most as the Dakotah word for \"sky-tinted waters.\" However, in her research about the origin of the state's name, acclaimed author and native Minnesotan Kathy-jo Wargin uncovered a little-known, but age-old, Ojibwe tale. The Legend of Minnesota tells the story of an enduring friendship between an Ojibwe girl and a Dakotah boy, and how their kindness toward one another gives the beautiful land of Minnesota its name.Author Kathy-jo Wargin has won acclaim for many of her children's titles -- including the bestselling Legend of Sleeping Bear and The Legend of the Lady's Slipper. Kathy-jo lives with her family in Petoskey, Michigan. David Geister specializes in historic art, has a background in commercial art, and frequently works on commission for an ever-growing number of private collectors. This is his first children's book. David lives with his family in Minneapolis, Minnesota.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathy-Jo Wargin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 158536262X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781585362622\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sleeping Bear Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.32h x 9.45w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e107499 \/ Legend of Minnesota\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Northeastern Minnesota Book Award - Nominee","brand":"Kathy-Jo Wargin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44048531652863,"sku":"9781585362622","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_996f53ab-1d20-4906-bdc4-2e7c3d99c693.jpg?v=1684996310","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-legend-of-minnesota-kathy-jo-wargin-9781585362622","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
