This is the spirited story of Esther Burnett Horne, an accomplished and inspiring educator in Indian boarding schools. Born in 1909, Horne attended Haskell Indian Institute in Lawrence, Kansas, and often visited relatives on the Shoshone Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. Motivated by teachers like Ella Deloria and Ruth Muskrat Bronson, Horne devoted her life to educating other Indian children. She began teaching at the Wahpeton Indian School in Wahpeton, North Dakota, in 1930 and has remained active in education to the present day. Her experiences as student and teacher have enabled Horne to provide a detailed portrait of Indian boarding schools. We learn about daily life at Haskell and about the challenges and rewards of teaching for the Bureau of Indian Affairs at Wahpeton. Above all, Horne's life illuminates the ongoing struggle by Native teachers and students to retain their cultural identities within a government educational system designed to assimilate them. Esther Horne and Sally McBeth developed this life history in a truly collaborative manner. McBeth carefully documented both Horne's personal history and the creation of this work. What emerges is an engaging and informative narrative about education and identity.Binding Type: Paperback

Love these books. Better for alcohol markers
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I like these coloring books because of the designs, thw fact that the back page is empty (thinking of bleeding) and the amount of drawings on the book. Meaning, its worth for the money. These are cute.
Alcohol markers: these pages are made for this kind of markers. They blend well.
Acrylic markers: these are not the best pages for these markers. Need to re-do strokes to get good coverage. Are not porous enough. Meaning, I can see the strokes on these pages; but, in other type of paper, the acrylic markers work better with single strokes.
First picture: acrylic marker (see the strokes)
Second picture: bleeding on back of paper (alcohol marker)
Third picture: alcohol markers (other Coco Who book)

Charming Coloring Book — Fun for All Ages
Format: Paperback
This coloring book has quickly become a favorite in our house! The illustrations are adorable and relaxing, making it just as enjoyable for adults as it is for kids. My daughter and I have spent hours coloring together, and it’s been a great way to unwind after school or on quiet weekend afternoons.
What I love most is how versatile it feels — the designs range from simple and playful to more detailed, so everyone finds pages that match their mood and skill level. It’s also a fun way to keep little hands engaged without screens.
Whether you’re looking for a creative activity to share with your kids or a gentle, artistic escape for yourself, this coloring book delivers plenty of charm and enjoyment.
The only reason giving 4 stars is because of the price. Although the book is great, I do not think it is worth almost $10.
