The Tlingit, the Haida, and the Kwakiutl are among the hundreds of separate groups of First Peoples who have lived on the Northwest Coast of North America for thousands of years.
Children will learn how the First Peoples gathered food and other resources from the forests, rivers, and ocean. The text describes the lifestyle, beliefs, and social structure of these peoples with beautiful accompanying illustrations.
This fascinating book looks at many of the lodges, or dwellings, built and used by the aboriginal nations across the continent.
A map showing the lodges appears at the beginning of the book, and beautiful, detailed illustrations show the exteriors, interiors, and way of life in each lodge.
Many of the foods we eat, the tools we use, the games we play, and even the ideas in which we believe, originated with North American Native peoples.
Beautiful images and easy-to-follow text help young readers discover the Native traditions and practices that were adopted by European explorers, North American settlers, and other people around the world.
