Sacagawea: Indian Interpreter to Lewis and Clark

Sacagawea: Indian Interpreter to Lewis and Clark
Written by Marion Marsh Brown
Biography 2


This was a very interesting book. I learned so much about Sacagawea. I was kind of concerned when I started to read it because it read like a story. I did not want to be fictionalized. I liked how they broke the chapters down chronological and the Illustrations they used.  The photographs were placed in the perfect spot. They helped the reader really see what is happening to her. Since the images are photographs, it really allows the reader to acknowledged she was a real person. She was a very prominent figure in our history. Her story has been told many times and in many different ways. This is a great way to read the truth about what Sacagawea did.
The way the book was written was easy to follow. It read like a novel. It would be great for 4th or 5th graders to gather information from. The way the chapters are broken down allow the reader to read about what he or she wants.
