Without her help, the Lewis and Clark Expedition would never have crossed the Rockies and reached the Pacific Northwest--and the course of U.S. history would have been changed forever.

I really enjoyed reading about the era that this book was in; the Lewis and Clark era. It was very interesting to read about how much Sacagawea did for the expedition crew, all while carrying baby on her back! I enjoyed seeing how the author had to guess how Sacagawea was feeling because she didn't keep a journal entry. However, this book did seem a bit monotone. I wished there were more details about some of the events that happened, but this isn't entirely the authors fault, since Sacagawea di
