Review: Wonderful read-aloud book

The Boy Who Flew With Eagles is a wonderful story which uses traditional story-telling and which is steeped in Native American folklore. This is a fast-past, action-filled story featuring solid character development and important underlying messages about caring for the environment and having empathy for all other living creatures.  Additionally, the simple yet effective illustrations by Laura Leikona add to the mystical feel of the story. The Boy Who Flew With Eagles would be a great choice for a reluctant reader (boys especially) and I also feel that it would work particularly well as a read-aloud book in a classroom or in a library reading circle.
