Hands-on activities, games, and crafts introduce children to the
diversity of Native American cultures and teach them about the
people, experiences, and events that have helped shape America,
past and present. Nine geographical areas cover a variety of
communities like the Mohawk in the Northeast, Ojibway in the
Midwest, Shoshone in the Great Basin, Apache in the Southwest,
Yupik in Alaska, and Native Hawaiians, among others. Lives of
historical and contemporary notable individuals like Chief Joseph
and Maria Tallchief are featured, and the book is packed with a
variety of topics like first encounters with Europeans, Indian
removal, Mohawk sky walkers, and Navajo code talkers. Readers
travel Native America through activities that highlight the arts,
games, food, clothing, and unique celebrations, language, and life
ways of various nations. Kids can make Haudensaunee corn husk
dolls, play Washoe stone jacks, design Inupiat sun goggles, or
create a Hawaiian Ma'o-hauhele bag. A time line, glossary, and
recommendations for Web sites, books, movies, and museums round out
this multicultural guide.
