Paperback

Jam-packed with easy-to-follow projects, recipes, and games, this enjoyable book takes readers to seven regions of North America to get to know their indigenous cultures.
In the Northeast, make an Iroquois tree of peace or a Winnebago shoulder bag. Enjoy some Hoh fry bread or fashion a Tsimshian life crest along the Northwest coast. Venturing farther north into Canada and Alaska, sew some Cree moccasins, make a Yupik raspberry dessert, or play favorite Inupiat games like maq or aakuu, aakuu. Activities include step-by-step picture directions (labeled drawings and photos including one of the finished products), lists of simple materials and tools, and cultural notes. In addition, one-page photo essays introduce contemporary artists (one per region) who produce traditional works.
Quantities are limited.
