"Hidden Roots" focuses on the greater impact that the
generations of Abenaki that followed had to deal with.
Readers will learn about the loss of identity, history and
culture; lack of self worth and fear that Abenaki people
were feeling, and still feel today. Middle grade readers
love to see life as "being fair", and will totally understand
that life is not fair in this story. This is a book that should
be read in every middle school class, so that this history
will not be forgotten, and never be repeated. Paperback. 2011.
