| Abstract: |
The book furthers cultural awareness with first person narratives describing the lives of five elementary school children who represent Native American tribes or a mix of Native American tribes with another culture. In a simple style, the children describe their activities, families, foods, recreational activities, and values, and explain their pride in their culture or cultures. Those cultures described in the book include: Filipino, Coast Salish, Gros Ventre, Assiniboine, Portuguese, Samoan, and Klallam. The large-print book is illustrated with black-and-white photographs.
