Sequoyah: The Cherokee Man Who Gave His People Writing is a lyrical picture book about the importance of literacy to the Cherokee Nation. This story explains how the important contribution of Sequoyah (c.1767 - 1843), developed through trial and error, resulted in the Cherokee writing system. Despite many obstacles, Sequoyah constructed an alphabet unique to the Cherokee language so that his people could read and write. In this bilingual read aloud book, the author explains how Sequoyah developed 84 symbols for sounds found in Cherokee. This illustrated biography also contains a chart showing the Cherokee syllabary, a discussion of Sequoyah and his accomplishment, and a time line of his life. Lexile: AD700L
