About This Book
Someday Night Bird will be the leader of her clan — that is, if the Seminoles have a future in Florida. To avoid capture, the dwindling clans must hold their Green Corn ceremony in secret: the fires are put out, the families feast in hiding, and there is no ancient ribbon dance.
But a new hope beckons — the white men offer free land in Oklahoma. Can Night Bird do what is best for the tribe, even if it breaks her heart?
