Title | Native American Fathers in Children's Picture Books |
Body | FROM: "Anselmo Villanueva" The March 2003 issue of "Multicultural Review" (Volume 12, No. 1) includes an article on "Selecting Children's Picture Books with Positive Native American Fathers and Father Figures," by Craig Heller, Bruce Cunningham and Hannah Heller. The authors briefly discuss the role of fathers and father figures in Native American cultures, and review 17 picture books representing the indigenous peoples of North America, Alaska Natives or Native Hawaiians. Included is a chart for what to look for and what to avoid in children's books about Native Americans. The authors suggest looking for "[b]ooks that show Native Americans as fully human with different roles, engaged in the everyday tasks of living as part of a complex society" (p. 48). Multicultural Review is published quarterly by: The Goldman Group, Inc. 14497 N. Dale Mabry Hwy, Suite 205 Tampa, FL 33618 http://www.mcreview.com |
