Debbie-- thanks for bringing these books to the attention of the CCBC-Net community. We highly recommend that people become familiar with them prior to October's discussion.
I also want to recommend three children's books we'll be discussing in October: "The Birchbark House" by Louise Erdrich (Hyperion 1999);
"Bowman's Store" by Joseph Bruchac (Dial, 1997); and "Heart of a Chief" by Joseph Bruchac (Dial ,1998). "Bowman's Store" is, sadly, out of print but we hope you'll be able to track down a copy of this excellent autobiography through your local library.
October's discussion will be moderated by Professor Eliza T. Dresang of Florida State University, where she teaches a class in multicultural literature Eliza is the author of "Radical Change: Books for Youth in a Digital Age" (HW Wilson, 1999).
And now, on to our discussion of Tomi Ungerer books!

Good morning I'd like to suggest listmembers read a copy of the following books to prepare for the October discussion: Evaluating Children's and Young Adult Books by and about American Indians.
American Indian Stereotypes in the World of Children: A Reader and Bibliography, 1999, by Arlene Hirschfelder, Paulette Fairbanks Molin, and Yvonne Wakim. The publisher is Scarecrow Press.
Through Indian Eyes: The Native Experience in Books for Children, 1998, by Beverly Slapin, and Doris Seale (Santee/Cree), eds. Published by UCLA Amer Indian Studies Center.
Both are in second edition, so please make sure you get the right one. Please note that Reader's Digest also published a book with "Through Indian Eyes" as the first words in the title, but the one I recommend is the Slapin and Seale book. Amazon says it ships in 4-5 weeks, but I know you can get it much sooner if you order it from Oyate at
