Publisher's Summary:
Wind That Knocks Down Lodges loves his Apache mother Shining Waters, his grandfather Chief Strawberry Moon, his baby sister Cactus Flower, and the wildness of the desert canyon land they call home. He has even developed a rough-hewn trust for Cactus Flower's father, the pale face soldier from the fort that their mother loves. In one night of gross misunderstanding and novice mistakes, Knocks Down and Cactus Flower's innocent young world is broken and shaken before they find themselves locked in the soldier fort with the pale faces and their mother's lifeless body.

A must read!
What a wonderful story to get middle graders involved in reading AND Texas history! Wind That Knocks Down Lodges and Cactus Flower could be my kids, your kids, or my grandkids. I fell in love with these believable characters. Following the heartbreaking events leading up to their hellish capture, I can't fully decide whose side I'm on . . . the Apache or the Pale Face. However, I certainly can't wait for the next book in the series, On The Colorado Trail! I wish I had had this to use in my classroom when I was still teaching.
On a side note, what made this book even more captivating was that it is rooted in fact, around the star-cross'd Indian Em'ly, who perished at Fort Davis due to her love for a soldier stationed there.
A must read for any Texan who champions the underdog!
A CAPTIVATING READ!
The first book in the series, "The Saga of Indian Em'ly:" The Apache and The Pale Face Soldier by author Sara Barnard, is a fascinating story about Indian Em'ly who died around Fort Davis trying to protect her children. She was married to a pale faced story who was one of her two children, Cactus Flower. Her other child, Wind that Knocks Down, is a young warrior, only age twelve, who fiercely protects his younger sister. This middle grade book is wonderfully told by the author. I was reminded of the elder storytellers in the Indian tribes who passed down stories through generations. This book will captivate young readers while teaching them the customs and traditions of the Apache Indians and the ways of the pale face settlers and soldiers.
This is a book that your middle grader will love reading.
