I like all of his stories.

Purchased on summer trip to South Dakota and read in between middle and high schools, 1991. Enjoyed.

Children of all ages will love this as have I. Fantastic retelling and quite enjoyable too.

Pretty good, if you turn a blind eye to the blatant racism and imperialism. But that's often hard to do.
