Members Reviews: INTRIGUING,INFORMATIVE FIUN. The author has used the story of this Native American boy to drawn the reader back into the different lifestyle of people so foreign to us.Their culture ,habits, methods,and implements are strange, and compels the reader to move forward for an understandingof how they were used to do the basic chores in everyday life.The need to befriend and know others who are unlike us is displayed by Green Leafs desire to learn how to communicate and help someone who is different from our own familiar kin folk and culture.Even today ,in our modern world communities ,often it is children who become the bridge builders,offering friendship,acceptance,and respect,so that we can move beyond our own distrust and work together in harmony. The adventures of the story is fast paced and keeps the reader turning the pages for the outcomes.The glossary helps with pronunciation and comprehension and the illustrations are clear and speaks of the Native American history.The story piques the readers interest to find out more about the lifestyles of our Native American Ancestors . The word count is low enough for a child to read quickly and the chapters are short and to the point. I really like this book and I found it fun and informative.Children of all ages will find this book a real treat. This book was so good that I bought the rest of the books in the series! I was eager to see if "The First Children of Farmington" books were as wonderful as I had heard, so I bought the kindle version of "Green Leaf, The Potawatomi Boy." It was so good that I immediately bought the paperback version and all five of the other "Farmington" books. I plan on giving them to my niece for Christmas. In this book, Green Leaf learns that friendship can overcome any barriers including those presented by cultural and linguistic differences. I really enjoyed this book. The writing was very good and the characters were delightful. A Good Chapter Book For Homeschooling Families A great educational and fun read for anyone who wants to learn about the Potawatomi Indians. "Green Leaf" has a glossary in the back for unfamiliar Indian words and a "find the hidden pictures" page for objects that were relevant in the story. The chapters were very short for beginning readers, and each chapter has a colorful picture to go along with the story. "Green Leaf" is written from a child's point of view and will draw in even reluctant readers with lots of action and colorful words. I wish I'd had this series to read with my daughters when they were young. Both were reluctant readers and these short chapter books would have covered history, English, and reading in one fell swoop.
