Actually, I heard it read by the author in a video. Enjoyed it!

The story of a little Indian boy who runs everywhere.

Set in the 1800s?

Rhyming text that sometimes has problems with rhythm.

Story just didn't grab me.

The Little Indian Runner is filled with stunning illustrations that are authentic to the Comanche nation. The story takes the reader on a inspiring journey and invites children to find joy through running. I absolutely love The Little Indian Runner and recommend it to anyone who wants to make a positive impact on the “little ones” in their world!
