Great for the classroom
9 Jan 2007
By Margaret A. Frick
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is great for the classroom when covering either prairie ecosystems or demonstrating how different styles of writing can relate to one topic. Great stories for kids. I also use these stories when I am at the prairie preserve with a class.

A rich blend of generations of voices and stories
4 July 2001
By Midwest Book Review
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
These stories of the North American prairie lands provide a rich blend of generations of voices and stories of natural history and the land, blending poems, stories and essays with insights on both native peoples, geography and wildlife. The result is a multi-faceted collection which doesn't neatly fit into singular categories of natural history, geography or culture; but which embraces them all.
