| Summary | "Timid Hare: The Little Captive" by Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade is a juvenile historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of Native American life, the story revolves around a white girl named Swift Fawn, who is captured by the Dahcotas and renamed Timid Hare. The narrative explores themes of identity, belonging, and the contrast between Swift Fawn's native upbringing and her experiences with her captors. The story follows Timid Hare from her capture by the Dahcotas through her struggles to adapt to her new life and environment. Initially frightened and homesick, she learns to navigate the complexities of her situation, finding solace in her friendships, particularly with Black Bull, the deformed son of her captor, The Stone. As the plot unfolds, Timid Hare faces challenges, including hard labor and the cruelty of The Stone, but also experiences moments of kindness, particularly from Sweet Grass, the chief's daughter. Eventually, her journey culminates in a series of events that lead to her rescue by her biological father, intertwining themes of hope and the search for one's true identity amidst cultural dislocation.
