Description

Twelve-year-old Takoda Schwartz, aka Koda, spends his days dodging bullies out to get him for his Native American heritage. One day, he touches a magic-loaded arrowhead on his family farm which lands him on his backside and gifts him with the ability to animate wooden objects. When a shape-shifting trickster god appears and knows far too much about Koda’s emerging powers, he opens Koda’s eyes to a real-life world of Native American mythology. 

Now Koda must come to grips with his abilities, escape a two-faced cowboy creature who tries to eat him, dodge an evil pack of dog men, and stop an unseen enemy who would rather have him dead. At the same time, he leads a motley crew of misfit heroes—and a wiener dog with a superiority complex—on a quest to stop a not-so-natural disaster of monstrous proportions.

Magical adventure! Can't wait to let my son read this!

This is another book using mythical gods as part of the magic system. I thought this would be interesting, since it uses Native American mythology, which as an American, is a lot closer to home than Greek/Roman/Viking, or whatever the latest book is up to these days. Unfortunately, while it did have a bit of lore, I felt there could've been much more. Instead, I felt this could pass for any mythological godly powers, not specifically Native American.

That being said, this was still a great book. A cute, fun read. Typical middle grade where everything resolves itself without too much conflict.

I recommend this book for young readers. Ages 7-12 maybe.
