The Native American Book of Life focuses on American Indian children. "The Children, Always the Children" shows how important the raising of children was among the People. It details their pastimes and how they were names, taught, and disciplined, as well as how they learned to be happy and productive citizens of their nations. The fictional story "By the Magic of the Strawberry Moon" takes place in an American Indian museum. It's a magical tale of how two Native American children learn about their own culture and their ancestors' contributions to the world. Author, White Deer of Autumn, Illustrated by Shonto Begay.
