A wonderful yet simple book describing the traditions and lifestyle of the Navajo in northeastern Arizona & parts of New Mexico & Utah. Associated to a color from their daily lives, such subjects as the making of turquoise jewelry and the sacredness of the ant are described. The length and form of the text would preclude self-reading until later in grade school.
Merit: Cultural information on a proud & ancient race of Native Americans.
Share: Read to youngsters. Readable later in grade school.
Appeal: Colorful artwork and well researched cultural information.
