Annotation: Native American Peoples explores the cultures of some of the earliest residents of North America. With direct, lively text covering each Native group's past and present, these books include each tribe's own origin stories and descriptions of its traditional way of life, its relationships with other tribes and with European settlers and explorers, its history through modern times, and life today, including the arts. In addition to the easy-to-understand text and vibrant historical and contemporary images, such helpful features as a time line, glossary, and suggested activities illuminate the cultures of the original Americans and their lives today. Once hunter-gatherers, the Navajos learned farming, herding, and weaving from their Pueblo Indian neighbors. Today's Navajos educate their children in a culture that values balance, harmony, and strong connections with extended family.
