I wish to voice my favorites from a group of book makers who have received less attention:

Shonto Begay and Louise Erdrich were mentioned. I add to the list of Native American authors and artists: Tim Tingle, (Crossing Bok Chitto); Bahe Whitethorne, Sr.,Sunpainters, Father's Boots); Michael Lacapa (The Flute Player, The Magic Hummingbird); Joseph Bruchac ( The Bright Path, Jim Thorpe, A Boy Called Slow, and The Navajo Long Walk illustrated by Shonto Begay).
