Native Americans

Grade 4-7-This book is confusing and poorly arranged. Scattered drawings throughout the text attempt to show various clothing items being discussed but readers will be unable to visualize the textures of the materials such as sealskin and wool from this art. Occasionally, the tribe in the illustration does not correlate with the one being described in the text. Chapter endings are abrupt. One Web site can't be found; another defaults to a museum home page rather than to the exhibition site. All of the links are for older readers.
