Gr 4–6—Students at the Native Nations Community School share presentations about the history, present, and
future of Indigenous communities. Lyrical text and jewel-tone illustrations offer a stirring portrayal of the ongoing fight for Native American recognition and rights.

This book was a non-fiction book that was presented in a school project format. Each of the students tackled a different topic concerning Native American oppression and it's effects both historically and today. It had sources, further information, an author's note, and a timeline in the back of the book.
This book might be suitable for 3rd or 4th graders (even though it is a picture book, the resources in the background make it a little more substantial for slightly older students) when learning about the history and current culture of Native American people. ( )

This book was full of historical information on how the native American culture was formed in America, providing different background insights into the laws and governmental issues that happened throughout time. This book is great for learning about Native American hsitory and how it affects our learning in different areas of the United States. ( )

The topic of this book is an important one and I am glad to see this on the bookshelf. However, I am not sure how engaging the format will be for young readers. I needed a few pages into the book to figure out the context for conveying the information. I like the presentation of the concepts rather than a timeline. ( )

For Indigenous People’s Day, kids make presentations on historical and current laws, policies, struggles and victories.
