Native North Americans have rich and diverse cultures and
traditions. However, many misconceptions, prejudices, and
stereotypes exist due to the lack of understanding and ignorance of
these cultures. It is important that children and adolescents learn
about and appreciate the invaluable contributions that North
American Native groups have made to American society. Equally
important is the availability of resources that accurately and
objectively portray the historical events that occurred when
European settlers displaced thousands of Native North Americans
from their ancestral homelands. In Native North Americans in
Literature for Youth, Alice Crosetto and Rajinder Garcha identify
hundreds of appropriate and quality resources, including books,
Internet sites, and media titles for K-12 students and educators.
Entries are subdivided into chapters covering geographic regions,
history, religions, social life, customs and traditions, nations,
oral tradition, biographies, and fiction. Additionally, there are
chapters for general reference resources, curricular resources for
educators, media, and Internet sites. Annotations provide complete
bibliographical descriptions of the entries, and each entry is
identified with the grade level for which it is best suited.
Reviews, awards, series, and URLs for supplemental online resources
are also included. Anyone-especially students, teachers,
librarians, and parents-interested in locating useful and accurate
resources regarding Native North Americans will find this reference
book a helpful and essential tool.
