Wilma Mankiller (Little People, Big Dreams)
by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara Author Alexandra Bowman Author
For readers ages 4 to 7, this book explores Wilma Mankiller’s life in this Little People, BIG DREAMS book. Growing up Cherokee, Wilma learned to be proud of her heritage. But moving from Oklahoma’s Rocky Mountains to San Francisco made her realize how unfairly Native Americans were treated.
As an adult, Wilma became a leader fighting for Native American rights. She made history as the first woman elected as Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation. This book features stylish illustrations and extra facts, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of Wilma Mankiller.
