The White Stag by Kate Seredy

Award winning book-Newbery Medal Winner

Generations of the Huns and Magyars follow the elusive White Stag so they can find their promise land. . . a land in which they can call their home.  According to this legend, the famous leader, Attila the Hun, is the one who eventually leads them to this beautiful land which is known today as Hungary. 
With beautiful phrasing and word choice, Ms. Seredy tells of this migration in a poetic manner.
She even offers reasons why Attila may have been so brutal.
I read this aloud to my two sons while we were learning about the Huns in history.
