Publisher's summary

Eleven-year-old Mandie Shaw is nervous about her trip to visit her Cherokee relatives. The journey through a North Carolina mountain forest is full of dangers like stalking panthers, and she wonders if her dead father’s kinspeople will even like her once she arrives. But the trip to the Indian reservation is only the beginning of Mandie’s many adventures. When Mandie and her friends get lost in a secret cave, they discover a pile of gold left behind by a legendary Cherokee chief. Is it really cursed, as legend insists? Faced with kidnappers, thieves, and the Carolina wilderness, Mandie uses the strength she finds in her faith in God to choose the proper path - for both herself and the Cherokee people. A warm-hearted sequel to Mandie and the Secret Tunnel, Mandie and the Cherokee Legend provides all the thrills listeners of this series have come to expect, colorfully voiced by Kate Forbes’s sparkling narration.

Not sure ...

Care is taken to accurately portray the area and history with some accurate Cherokee names and words, however, the story promotes the idea of "white saviorism". I was listening to it to potentially share with my students who are members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, where the book is set. It is written from an antiquated perspective and does not promote cultural awareness. ***Spoiler alert*** The little fair-skinned, 1/4 Cherokee girl without any native culture saves the day. It's exactly the narrative we should be trying to move away from. I understand this book was written before the movement towards cultural sensitivity, but it does not translate well today. Of course, this is my personal opinion.
