Publisher's Summary
Born of Mohawk and Cayuga descent, musical icon Robbie Robertson learned the story of Hiawatha and his spiritual guide, the Peacemaker, as part of the Iroquois oral tradition. Now he shares the same gift of storytelling with a new generation. Hiawatha was a strong and articulate Mohawk who was chosen to translate the Peacemaker's message of unity for the five warring Iroquois nations during the 14th century. This message not only succeeded in uniting the tribes but also forever changed how the Iroquois governed themselves - a blueprint for democracy that would later inspire the authors of the US Constitution.

Super short but sweet
It's less than a half hour, but is a great story from true events about uniting the 5 nations of the Iroquois people. Like many Indigenous peoples' stories, it has layers of meaning and is therefore entertaining for both adults and children.
