Download or read book Native North Americans in Literature for Youth written by Alice Crosetto and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native North Americans have rich and diverse cultures and traditions. However, many misconceptions, prejudices, and stereotypes exist due to the lack of understanding and ignorance of these cultures. It is important that children and adolescents learn about and appreciate the invaluable contributions that North American Native groups have made to American society. Equally important is the availability of resources that accurately and objectively portray the historical events that occurred when European settlers displaced thousands of Native North Americans from their ancestral homelands. In Native North Americans in Literature for Youth, Alice Crosetto and Rajinder Garcha identify hundreds of appropriate and quality resources, including books, Internet sites, and media titles for K-12 students and educators. Entries are subdivided into chapters covering geographic regions, history, religions, social life, customs and traditions, nations, oral tradition, biographies, and fiction. Additionally, there are chapters for general reference resources, curricular resources for educators, media, and Internet sites. Annotations provide complete bibliographical descriptions of the entries, and each entry is identified with the grade level for which it is best suited. Reviews, awards, series, and URLs for supplemental online resources are also included. Anyone—especially students, teachers, librarians, and parents—interested in locating useful and accurate resources regarding Native North Americans will find this reference book a helpful and essential tool.

Book excerpt: "Isak and the Oranges, a work of historic fiction, is a carefully researched story about the plight of orphans and half-orphans in New York City at the turn of the last century. It is based on the author's father's experiences as an immigrant child. The Hebrew Orphan Asylum was real, as were the child-rearing practices common at the turn of the last century. Today they would be considered child abuse, but at that time were thought to be "for the child's own good." Although the children left the orphanage well prepared for their future, nothing could erase the terrors of their early life or the stigma of being orphans."--back cover
