(4) 4-6 Shortly after her family is relocated to a Lakota reservation in 1880, ten-year-old Four Winds is sent to a boarding school to become "civilized" with white language and customs. Four Winds chafes under the strict rules designed to sanitize Indians of their culture. Though some supposed Native American language and perspectives feel awkwardly forced into the story, the narrative is well paced.
