An important herstorical figure to know

I am Sacagawea c) 2017 A children’s biographical picture book by Brad Meltzer and one in a series entitled “Ordinary People Change the World”. This book is chock-full of information about Sacagawea and her role in the Lewis & Clark expedition. No need to be offended by the cartoonlike pictures. All of the books in this series use this motif. One page I found so interesting was how languages were interpreted down the line.  (approx. p. 10) Shoshoni into Hidatsa into French into English. Another page explained that we can find 8 different ways to spell Sacagawea’s name in Lewis & Clark’s journals alone! (approx. p. 14) The inner strength and drive of this young woman are emphasized in this book. She was a female Native American and a teenage mom who faced adversities. She is definitely someone for us to know!
