Cochise led an Apache uprising in the Southwest."--Page 4 of cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>November is Native American Heritage month!<p></p>Osceola, Cochise, and Tecumseh are three Native American heroes who fought valiantly for their land and for their people.

Their true stories are emotionally gripping and tragic, and Ann McGovern handles delicate topics, such as violence and racism, expertly for young readers. The narrative text is supplemented by black-and-white original source materials throughout (i.e. photographs, maps, portraits, a newspaper article).<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Praise for IF YOU LIVED IN COLONIAL TIMESGives a great deal of information and is nicely appropriate to the capability of the beginning reader. -BULLETIN OF THE CENTER FOR CHILDREN'S BOOKS<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ann McGovern has written over 35 children's books, including STONE SOUP; several books in the IF YOU LIVED... series; and SCRAM, KID!
