Description

This novel by Island of the Blue Dolphin author Scott O'Dell is based on Sacagawea, Indian guide to explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. O'Dell follows the life of Sacagawea from the time she was kidnapped by the Minnetarees to her travels with Lewis and Clark through the uncharted West.

Publisher's Description of Streams to the River, River to the Sea

The award-winning author Scott O'Dell brings Sacagawea's story to life, giving us a breathtaking account of this young heroine's role in an American saga.

Sacagawea, a young Native American woman, accompanied by her infant and her cruel husband, experiences joy and heartbreak when she joins the Lewis and Clark expedition seeking a way to the Pacific.

When young Sacagawea first lays eyes on the white men coming up the river, she cannot imagine the impact they will have on her life-and she on theirs. For the men coming up the river are about to make history, and she is going to help them. 

Sacagawea joined the Lewis and Clark team as an interpreter and guide. Her knowledge of the language, land, and people of the unchartered West made her an integral part of their success.
