{"product_id":"people-of-the-breaking-day-9780689314070","title":"People of the Breaking Day","description":"\u003ci\u003eWe are Wampanoags, People of the Breaking Day. Nippa'uus the Sun, in his journey through the sky, warms us first as he rises over the rim of the sea. At his birth each new morning we say, \"Thank you, Nippa'uus, for returning to us with your warmth and light and beauty.\"\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBut it is Kiehtan, the Great Spirit, who made us all: we, the two-legged who stand tall, and the four-legged; those that swim and those that fly and the little people who crawl; and flowers and trees and rocks. He made us all, brothers sharing the earth.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003eSo begins the story of the Wampanoag people, the tribe that lived in southeastern Massachusetts at the time the Pilgrims landed. In this companion book to \u003ci\u003eThe Pilgrims of Plimoth, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for nonfiction, Marcia Sewall recreates the world of the Wampanoags, the People of the Breaking Day. In a voice that evokes the pride and natural poetry of these native people and in paintings glowing with life and light, the distinguished author-illustrator presents another view of an important time in American history, a time before the meeting of two very different cultures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780689314070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.79h x 10.34w x 0.46d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1990 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/02\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e44421 \/ People of the Breaking Day\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.3 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Marcia Sewall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924889964725,"sku":"9780689314070","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_132a3ffa-462b-4542-9f72-1bb0d3129392.jpg?v=1687840701","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/people-of-the-breaking-day-9780689314070","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
