Summary
From the Back Cover: Children's books depicting Native Americans are often loaded with misinformation. How to tell the difference is a vital tool for those who want to avoid the pitfalls of bias and stereotyping when choosing books for children. This checklist makes it easier for a teacher, parent, librarian or student to choose non-racist and undistorted books about the lives and histories of Native peoples. Easy to use, with clear examples on every page. How to Tell the Difference pays special attention to books for young children. It examines the effects of stereotyping on children's self-esteem. While culturally specific to Native Americans, the checklist provides insight into all forms of stereotyping and suggests valuable keys to multicultural education
