    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource for grade school students., June 5, 2000
    By 
    A Picture Book Of Sacagawea is an illustrated children's book with a brief biography of Sacagawea, the Shoshone woman who served and guide and interpreter for the exploration/journey of Lewis and Clark into the great Northwest territory of the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. From her birth in 17888 or 89 in Idaho to the end of the expedition in Fort Mandan, August of 1806, the biography gives known details of Sacagawea's many helpful and courageous actions. Her eventful life is still incompletely known. The dates of her death are given as "either December 20, 1812, or April 9, 1884." But her life is definitely an example of inspiration to young readers.

    5.0 out of 5 stars use in a classroom, November 3, 2003
    This is a great book that will give students an insight into the life of Sacagawea. It details her time with Lewis and Clark. It also gives students an idea of what life was like for explorers traveling west in the early 19th century.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Picture Book of Sacagawea, October 13, 2009
    This book was a biography of Sacagawea. It begins with her birth in 1788 or 1789 on the western part of the Rocky Mountains. It goes on to her capture by the Hidatsa warriors and her marriage to Toussaint Carbonneau. The biography also covers significant events that occurred during the Lewis and Clark Expedition. I liked how this book gave more insight into Sacagawea's life as well as the Lewis and Clark expedition. There was much information and details that I did not know before. It also included great illustrations. Overall, I thought it was a great book.
