American Indians in Children's Literature

Being someone is almost constantly sorting through children's books, links to good books for children are always of an interest to me. My friend sent me this link, and I am thrilled.

For years now I have been dissatisfied with many MANY children's books in regards to the subtle and not so subtle messages they pass on concerning Native Americans. This site looks like a GREAT reference for checking.

Not much time to write today so hope everyone is well!
