A review by alpacawallop
Elatsoe by Darcie Little Badger

4.0

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I was very excited to follow along with Ellie, Kirby, Jay, and her family in order to learn the secrets of Dr. Allerton and Willowbee, TX. I learned more about Lipan Apache culture from Elatsoe than a lifetime of going to school and even so, I know it's just scratching the surface of their culture.

The book is definitely not afraid to throw barbs at the whitewashed versions of American history and I definitely appreciate it. I will be recommending this book to many students and adults alike. I hope Darcie Little Badger continues to write, I am excited to see what she'll tackle next!
