Land of the Spotted Eagle
This is the finest book I have read on the lifestyle of the Lakota (Sioux),people not only before European contact, but also how they dealt with their transformation into "civilized" members of the dominate society. It was originally written in 1933. Luther Standing Bear took his name after entering Carlisle Indian School. How sad that the newcomers to North America didn't take the time to learn the culture of the original inhabitants of this land. We would all be better off today if they had. This book gives much insight into why. Even at this late date, there is a lot that can be learned from "Native Wisdom." I highly suggest that anyone interested, read this book. It will touch your heart!

Read this book if you like animal stories!!!! by me!!
This book is very good if you like animal stories alot. You have to know alot about coyotes and there habitat though. It was the best book that I ever read.The book was about a boy who found some coyoyes that had no mother. The boy kept the pups and eventualy he had a zoo full of animals. I won't tell you the rest of the story! Bye!!!

A classic adventure story
Mel Ellis was the first author to really grab my attention. Like most kids I only read the books that were assigned to me by my teachers. For my first independent book review I ended up choosing Flight of the White Wolf. What a book! The story of Russ and his wolf was a neverending adventure. It is the book that the reader won't put down. Mel Ellis had me daydreaming for weeks. This is a book that should be available to every child. Let them live the adventure and give them something that they will enjoy reading.

my favorite childhood book
I have been looking for this book since 1980. I read it in 7th grade and was fascinated by the relationship btween the boy and the wolf. I HAVE NOT LOCATED IT UNTIL NOW. I WILL READ IT AGAIN TO SEE HOW MUCH I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECALL SINCE 7TH GRADE; I DO KNOW IT WAS THE FIRST BOOK OF MY LIFE THAT I READ FROM COVER TO COVER WITHOUT PUTTING IT DOWN! TO THIS DAY, I HAVE A FASCINATION WITH WOLVES AND NATURE AND I AM NOW IN THE FIELD ON CONSERVATION BIOLOGY BECAUSE OF THIS EXACT BOOK! I CAN'T WAIT TO GET A COPY AND READ IT AGAIN AND ADD IT TO MY PRIZE COLLECTION. THANKS FOR HELPING ME LOCATE IT AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
