    This book is themed around the Lakota Indians, time travel, and the great plains. I would use this book in my teaching as a read aloud book to my students. I like this particular series of books because they are full of suspense and are fun to read. I would recommend this book to children in grades 1-3.

    Like most Magic Tree House books, this book gives the reader information about a topic, this time life as a Lakota tribe member through the lens of Jack and Annie and their little dog. Jack and Annie learn about how important pride and generosity are to the native people.

    I liked the book because it was about animals. It was about a buffalo. I would like to hunt and kill and eat a buffalo. I can't because they are endangered. My favorite part was when they had to hide in the grass, and they thought that Black Hawk was a big Indian, but he was really a boy. He crept down a hill, past a buffalo, but he sneezed and the buffalo was scared!

    Jack and Annie head out to get an object from the Lakota Suix, which they manage after Jack finally stops being a total wimp for once. They save a boy after he shows off for them, and then spend the night (utually they leave the past after a couple of hours. Yes, the usual historical inaccuracies.

    This is a very sweet story in the Magic Tree House series. Annie & Jack go to the Great Plains of the 1800s and meet a Lakota boy named Black Hawk and his wise and gentle grandmother. It's a nice glimpse into the life of the Lakota following the buffalo across the plains in the time before white settlers arrived. Which also makes it bittersweet since a culture and way of life were lost. Maybe the best Magic Tree House story I've read yet.

    The magical book series transport the visitors of a magical treehouse into the land and time of the books they read. This book sends the children to the great plains of America during the early 1800’s to retrieve a gift. The children read facts from the book as they explore the vast plains. Soon, they come across the Lakota tribe. Jack learns from the book how to interact with his new Lakota friends. They experience tribal life and witness the great buffalo. They learn that great spirits own the lands, not people.Although this book is part of a series, it can be read alone. This book is interesting, in that, as the children are discovering, they are reading facts from their research book. These facts help the story become more of a teaching tool. There is also a section of additional facts presented at the end of the book.

    I really liked this book for a couple different reasons. The text features were how Jack would read some information about the Great Plains and then he would summarize that information in a notebook. They had handwriting in the book to show what he was summarizing. This helped relate actual history to this fictional story. For example the book had 2 sentences of history about the Great Plains. And then three lines below that in Jack’s handwriting it said “Great Plains- lots of land”. This helps give the students background knowledge when reading the book. I also really liked the book because the sentences were short. They were easy to read and kept me engaged the whole time. it kept the action moving and made the reader think “what next?” lastly, I liked that at the end of the book they went into further explanation about the legend of the White Buffalo Woman. This is a Lakota legend that has been passed down and after mentioning it in the book they put the legend at the end of the story for the students to read. Also there are more facts about the Lakota Indians, the Great Plains and how buffalo were such a great resources for the Native Americans. The big idea in this text was teaching students to be brave. Jack and Annie showed great bravery when going back to the Great Plains. This book also had themes of teamwork. Jack and Annie had to work together to help Black Hawk get away from the buffalo. This was a great book and it makes me want to read more of the Magic Tree House series.
