When European settlers first arrived in the New World, there were an estimated 20 million indigenous people living across our vast land in more than 500 groups or tribes. Each of these groups had its own culture, traditions, and beliefs, along with its own geographic location, language, and socioeconomic conditions.Nevertheless, today, it is often easy for young readers to assume that all Native Americans in the past were alike and to associate specific objects and practices with all Native Americans, regardless of tribe or location.The goal of A Kid’s Guide to Native American Culture is to dispel the concept that all Native Americans were the same, and to give young readers (ages 9-12) a better understanding of the great diversity within and across Native American tribes throughout America, both historically and in the 21st Century.The large format (8 ½ x 11) includes dramatic full-color photos, charts and maps, photo captions, Did You Know sidebars, and direct quotes, all of which are designed to support a standards-based English/language arts curriculum. A Kid’s Guide to Native American Culture is one in a series of nonfiction books primarily about countries and cultures around the world published by Curious Kids Press. Other books in the series feature Ancient Egypt, Australia, China, Costa Rica, England, France, Iceland, India, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Scandinavia and Finland, South Africa, Thailand, and the United States, along with three special editions focusing on the U.S. states of Hawaii and Alaska, Planet Earth, and the continents of South America and Antarctica.Designed primarily for recreational, high-interest reading, the books are also a great resource for students to use to research geography topics or writing assignments.

Even as contact with European cultures eroded indigenous lifestyles across North America, many Native American groups found ways to preserve the integrity of their communities through the arts, customs, languages, and religious traditions that animate Native American life. The ancient cultural legacies that both distinguish and unite these diverse tribes are the subject of this volume. --from publisher description
