This book is appropriate for kindergarten-2nd grade. This book is about a grandfather and grandson sharing Native American traditions. I thought this book was very sweet and educational on the Native American culture. It could be problematic if it's the only book about Native American culture because it's a little outdated, but I think it could still be okay to have in the classroom library. ( )

In this book a grandfather is telling his grandson the story of his birth. He uses traditional counting rope to help him recall the order of events. While this book does have Native American people displayed I would say that this is not the best book for diverse representation. It portrays Natives as stereotypes and is not very up to date. If someone where to read this in a classroom it would need to be followed by discussion. ( )

A beautifully illustrated story about the importance of oral stories and tradition in the life of a Native American boy. ( )

Great story to fill your kid's imagination while showing history of the American Indians. ( )

This is a book about a young boy, and his journey to reading about his grandfathers adventures and life. The book is coming from the boys point of view, and is portraying him as a young person who is wondering about his family history and his grandfathers life. The book would be great for middle and late primary school, and could be used to share about different tribes but also about the different ways of life. ( )
