Book description
Grade Level: 1-4Award: The Robert E. Sibert Honor BookThis is a picture book describing the true story of a man, Sequoyah and how he invented the Cherokee written language. Sequoyah was born in the 1760s into the Cherokee tribe in Tennessee. Although he was crippled he was able to work as a metalworker, making things like forks and spoons. Later in his life, growing tired of his people not having a voice to combat the ever-present White Man’s voice, he put his mind to develop a way of writing for his people. At first he tried making symbols for each word he knew. But when people saw this they thought him to be crazy and burned down his cabin, with all of his work in it. Sequoyah did not give up! He set to work again, but this time rather than giving each word its own set of symbols, he designated a symbol for each sound. Finally people began to see what amazing work Sequoyah was doing and started to learn how to write and read. Now his people had a voice and could take their books and stories with them – even when soldiers forced them away from their land. The most powerful part of the book is that each page in the story has the Cherokee translation written under or next to the English text. It reminds the reader that this is a true story and that the language is alive today to prove it. This is a fascinating story that I had not heard before. I would recommend this book for the primary grades. It is written in a way for younger students to access the information. It is not bogged down with historical dates or vocabulary. The illustrations are done in a way that give evoke a sense of the time period the story is written about. I have done a Native American unit in my second grade class where groups become experts on different tribes. This would be a great informational story to include for the Cherokee group to complement compliment myths and folktales. Additionally, it could be a fun activity to write a short letter in both English and Cherokee to Sequoyah or someone else in the Cherokee tribe. In my experience it has been rare to read a picture book having to do with Native Americans and education or Native American inventors. The stories I usually see are Native American myths, which are wonderful, but don’t always paint a realistic picture of the culture. Therefore, stories like the one of Sequoyah are very important to tell.
