Inaccurate
Published by B. Punsalang , 3 years ago
I wish I'd done more research before buying this one. Many Native people have spoken out against this book because it's title is based on a racist song & the information within the book is factually incorrect. Next time I won't be buying a book on Native topics written by someone who isn't from a Native background. I won't be keeping this one.
Beautiful Book

I love this book. The illustrations are gorgeous. Its a great introduction to various Native American tribes, and a lovely counting book. One of my favorites.
Ten Little Rabbits

These books were purchased for the opening of a new kindergarten on the Pine Ridge (Sioux) Indian Reservation in So. Dakota. I was told by the children's teacher they are thrilled with the books, particularly as the heroes and heroines are children who look the same as they do, show knowledge of the same culture and share the same mythology. Providing these children with a positive self-image from day one of their school experience will reap future rewards through a love of reading.
A beautiful Counting book

Having Native American children I am always looking for books for them. I purchased this for my 18 month old (hard cover version). He loves to look at it. He will pull it out at least once a day to look at it. I've even noticed his 8 year old brother sneaking a peek more than once. I love the vibrant, without being bright, illustrations. They are intracate yet simple. The rabbits are adorable. The book starts with one rabbit and continues through to 10. The rabbits are in Native American regalia and doing traditional Native activites
Great book for indian study and patterns.

I have read this book to my first grade class during a unit on indians as well as used the patterns in the blankets during a pattern unit in math. The children want to read it again and again!! A great read and a great resource for teachers. My students enjoy making sack puppets and designing their own blanket and then acting out the book.
Praise for "Ten Little Rabbits"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
A clever variation on the 10 little Indians theme, this book adds instead of subtracts, and no one gets killed. Beginning with one lonely traveler, the book progresses to 10 sleepy weavers "knowing day is done." Each picture shows rabbits attired in Native American constumes and engaged in activites - fishing, hunting, weaving, storytelling - common to Indians. The illustrations are gorgeous. Though light in touch, they carry an admirable visual weight.
