Sitting Bull: Champion Of The Sioux By Stanley Vestal

I read Sitting Bull: Champion of the Sioux by Stanley Vestal, Sitting Bull was a Hunkpapa Lakota Leader that wouldn't back down from the war. While reading Sitting Bull Champion of the Sioux I found a variety of things that I could compare to but I also found things that aren't similar. The biggest thing that I found that wasn’t similar was the fact that he was a man of his word if I were to say that I'm going to do something I wouldn’t do it but Sitting Bull would. There were countless parts of the book that showed Sitting Bull was a Warrior some may beg a differ but in my eyes, he was a Warrior and someone to look up to.

Sitting Bull and I grew up in different time periods. In my time period, I have great technology and many ways to contact people. …show more content…
I use to play basketball almost every day and to think Sitting Bull never heard about it is just crazy to think about. Basketball was invented in the year after Sitting Bull which is a tragedy that he couldn't live to see a sport that is growing around the world.

I, Trecyn Hallman live with my older sister Jayda and my mom. I don’t live with my dad, unlike Sitting bull. Sitting Bull had a dad in his life. When Sitting Bull was born it was a blessing because a son means good luck. Where I come from it doesn't matter the gender because both are equally welcome. Sitting Bull wasn’t an only child he had a brother. So I’m sure his parents were really happy with 2 boys.

I live in an environment full of transportation for land and water. Sitting Bull only used horses and to me, that would be weird because I don't use animals as transportation. I understand that he used a horse because its fast but it’s just not normal for me because all my life there were cars. I feel like having a horse would be so cool because it has feelings and you can pet it. Although as transportation if you live in a cold climate you would be very cold if you're traveling
