Discover how the lives of buffalo, Indigenous people, and the North American prairie have long been intertwined. And find out how all three were harmed by a massive effort to slaughter buffalo. Despite the challenges, this is ultimately a hopeful story, highlighting those who have worked to protect bison, grow their numbers, and establish protected areas for them to roam. Along with recounting historical and scientific information, the book incorporates the perspective of Indigenous environmental scientist Ferin Davis Anderson.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra Markle,Ferin Davis Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Millbrook Press (Tm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.97h x 10.70w x 0.37d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798348030384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudience:\u003c\/b\u003e Ages 9-12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2026 pg. 133\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarkle, Sandra:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eSandra Markle\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of numerous award-winning books for children.
