Eve Bunting Cheyenne Again
Sandpiper May 20, 2002 0618194657 / 9780618194650 Paperback New
0618194657 Children's Books: Ages 4-8 From School Library Journal Grade 1-4-A poignant look at the pain inflicted upon one child by a dominan t culture's heavy-handed attempt to "help." Near the turn of the century, a Cheyenne boy, Young Bull, is forced to attend the off-reservation Indian s chool so that he can learn to become a part of the white world. He is house d in soulless barracks and shown repeatedly and quite blatantly that the In dian ways are no good. When he rebels and tries to run home in a snowstorm, he is caught, returned, and shackled for a day. The story, told from Young Bull's point of view, is not so much judgmental as empathetic-none of the authority figures is an ogre. The agents for change here are not white bure aucrats, but Indians who have adopted white ways, and Young Bull clearly fe els betrayed by them. Toddy's acrylic and oil paintings add to the emotions expressed in the narrative. The openness, light, color, and individuality of the boy's home surroundings are in sharp contrast to the formality, empt iness, and uniformity of the school. Young Bull's struggle to hold onto his heritage will touch children's sense of justice and lead to some interesti ng discussions and perhaps further research.
