In these childrens literature reading books, young readers learn about Kaya, a proud, courageous American girl growing up in the 1760s.
Kayaź is an adventurous Nez Perce girl living in 1764 whose deep love of horses and respect for nature nourish her spirit. In this reading adventure Speaking Rain has returned! As Kaya joins a hunting party traveling into the mountains, she’s hopeful that she’ll find her beloved horse Steps High, too. But Speaking Rain is troubled—she smells the smoke of mountain fires. As Kaya searches for Steps High, she must face a fear greater than any she’s ever known.
Kaya dreams of becoming a courageous leader for her people who’s ready to meet whatever the future brings. She draws strength from her family, the legends her elders tell, and the bold warrior woman who is her hero. And she learns that the choices she makes affect all Nez Perce people.
