It blew people, like seeds, to a new land.</i> <p/>The wind blew in a girl and her clan, where herds of mammoths still wandered the frozen tundra. It later blew a boy and his family across frigid waters, and they spread across the new land. Over time, the wind continued to disperse newcomers from all directions. It blew in men who hoped to find gold, and slave ships, and immigrant families. And so it continued, for generations and generations. Here is a moving and tender picture book that beautifully examines centuries of North American history and its people.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Enlightening, visually gorgeous, and emotionally moving. --<i>Kirkus Reviews, </i>starred review<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lisa Westberg Peters is the author of nineteen children's books including <i>Our Family Tree: An Evolution Story, </i> the winner of the Minnesota Book Award.
