The Fond du Lac Head Start program published two terrific board books written by Ojibwe women.

The first, Boozhoo, Come Play With Us uses color photos of kids at the Fond du Lac head start to go along with words in English and Ojibwe about the things kids do at school. Example: "Boozhoo, Whitney. Boozhoo means hello."

The second one is called Our Journey. Like Boozhoo, it uses Ojibwe words.

Both are available from Oyate
(http://www.oyate.org/catalog/preschool.html), but not through Amazon.
