Little Fox's Secret

Bent's Fort shall be destroyed! This I have seen. With these words, the Cheyenne elder Gray Owl predicts the end of the mighty trading post on the Arkansas River. Eleven-year-old Little Fox learns that Gray Owl's vision includes him. He must destroy Bent's Fort! Alone and unarmed, Little Fox is left outside the towering adobe walls to face an impossible mission. This first chapter book for young readers is both a thrilling adventure tale and a well-researched interpretation of the end of Bent's Fort in 1849.
