About the I Am Sacagawea Young Reader (Paperback)

Now in paperback, here is the inspiring story of Sacagawea, the only Native American included in Lewis and Clark's historic expedition, part of the New York Times-bestselling biography series about heroes for ages 5 to 9. This book spotlights Sacagawea, the only girl, and the only Native American, to join Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery, which explored the U.S. in the early 1800s. As a translator, she helped the team communicate with members of the Shoshone tribe across the continent, carrying her child on her back the whole way.
