Omschrijving

Before Sequoyah, the Cherokee people had no written language. By the end of his life, they had one of the fastest-growing rates of literacy in the world. This is the extraordinary true story of how one man—without ever learning to read or write another language—invented a way for his people to record their stories, laws, and knowledge using symbols of their own.

This book brings the story to life for kids ages 7 to 12 with clear, engaging writing that shows how determination, creativity, and belief in a dream can change everything. Readers will discover how Sequoyah worked tirelessly, often alone, to create the Cherokee syllabary, how his young daughter helped him test it, and how their work led to a revolution in communication for the Cherokee Nation. Through forced relocation, hardship, and doubt from others, his idea endured—and sparked something much bigger than anyone expected.

This is not just a story about language—it's about vision, resilience, and the power of one person to shape the future of a people. Perfect for kids who love history, inventors, and real-life heroes, this book introduces an inspiring figure whose impact is still felt today.
