Review: The story is about a young boy called Omri who discovers that if he places a plastic figure in an old cupboard that the figure then comes to life. As the title suggests he discovers this with an Indian figure, Little Bull. Little Bull is an Iroquois, and he proceeds to build a longhouse rather than a teepee. Omri's friend Patrick, who originally gave Omri the plastic Indian figure as a birthday present, discovers the secret and demands that his cowboy figure on horseback is brought to life also. As you can imagine, a number of adventures and general mayhem results. The book is aimed at children, up to very early teens, and is a gentle read. It harks back to the time when children seemed to get more pleasure out of a simple book, rather than the plethora of electronic gadgetry available today. One can't help thinking something was lost, as well as gained, along the way! I hope my children enjoy it, but I'm aware that it's a really tough task finding an engaging read for them today. There is a section at the end of the story which gives some facts about Indian life and customs, and the author also elaborates on how she created the story and how it was received by the modern American Indian community.
