Subject: [alsc-l] The Christmas Coat: Memories of My Sioux Childhood

As you select books to read aloud this month, I hope Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve's THE CHRISTMAS COAT is amongst your choices! If not, I've included a link to Birckbark Books and hope you'll support independent bookstores and get a copy there.
