This book describes the life of a hoop dancer for the Lakota. I found it very informative and pleasant to read. You get a real flavor for a person who has chosen to try to maintain the culture of his people. It's not easy.

Lakota Hoop Dancer not only explains about the dancing and dancer, but gives a feel for the land of the Lakota, their views of the world, and the people themselves and their values. The brief glossary and explanations of Lakota expressions within the book help. Students and others interested in American Indian tribes will enjoy this and gain insights. Excellent photographs enhance the text.
