Jingle Dancer by Cynthia Leitich Smith

5.0

I love this book and this was not the first time I have read it. We used it in combination with a video that showed a powwow so my students could hear the sounds of the jingle dresses. My students really noticed the similarities between Hmong New Year and Powwow. They noticed also that the dresses they wear have coins that jingle like the jingle cones.
