From our Purveyor of Books:
This little book tells the story of a buffalo herd through the life of a calf who will become the Chief of the Thundering Herd. The story is told in verse accompanied by lovely black and white illustrations. The seasons in the Dakota are described too...
"Spring is an impish coyote
playing in the wind
and tossing the weather
like a tumbleweed ball."
There Still Are Buffalo tells the story of a buffalo calf that grows up to be Chief of the Thundering Herd. The herd roams the Dakota Indian Country, where the Sioux people have set aside a preserve for buffalo, elk, antelope, and deer. It is here that the Buffalo can live the grand life they were meant to.
