Native American Gardening: Stories, Projects, and Recipes for Families

Wonderful for family members of all ages to learn about Native American culture in regard to growing one's food and about living in this world in harmony with the rest of creation.

ANY book by Mr. Caduto and Bruchac is both authentic and well researched. This book is another fine contribution by this team. A must have for a science teacher, for Native American curriculum, home schooling etc. I plan to purchase ALl the books by these authors.

An excellent reference for teachers and parents alike, this book contains Native legends related to gardening as well as projects based on the tales, gardening tips, helpful suggestions for beginners, recipes to use your garden's new- found bounty, and much more! Joseph Bruchac is a very well-known storyteller in the Native American community. Along with his various co-authors in his different books, he combines storytelling with various teaching and family-based activities. I collect his books, because they are both a great reference for Native American mythology and belief, but also because my daughter and I can then turn around and learn together about the great past of the United States.
