This book describes the creature dubbed "Mothman" by the press. Beginning in Virginia in the early 1960s, witnesses reported sighting a flying creature about seven feet tall with a wingspan of more than ten feet, glowing red eyes and scaly skin. It made a screeching sound, caused radio interference, and seemed to have some sort of mind control power. As reports continued, more powers were attributed to the creature and the legend grew. Critical thinking sidebars help readers decide for themselves on whether Mothman was real.

"I remember the day I lost my spirit." So begins the story of Gertrude Simmons, also known as Zitkala-Ša, which means Red Bird. Born in 1876 on the Yankton Sioux reservation in South Dakota, Zitkala-Ša willingly left her home at age eight to go to a boarding school in Indiana. But she soon found herself caught between two worlds—white and Native American. At school she missed her mother and her traditional life, but Zitkala-Ša found joy in music classes. "My wounded spirit soared like a bird as I practiced the piano and violin," she wrote. Her talent grew, and when she graduated, she became a music teacher, composer, and performer. Zitkala-Ša found she could also "sing" to help her people by writing stories and giving speeches. As an adult, she worked as an activist for Native American rights, seeking to build a bridge between cultures.The coauthors tell Zitkala-Ša’s life by weaving together pieces from her own stories. The artist''s acrylic illustrations and collages of photos and primary source documents round out the vivid portrait of Zitkala-Ša, a frightened child whose spirit "would rise again, stronger and wiser for the wounds it had suffered."
