Indian Child Life

by Charles Alexander Eastman

This book, written by a Native American man, offers a personal and intimate glimpse into the lives of Native American children in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It challenges the common stereotypes of Native Americans as 'savages' by presenting a heartwarming and insightful account of their traditions, values, and daily life. Told through the lens of a young boy and girl, the book explores the beauty and complexity of Native American culture, including their relationship with nature, their ceremonies, and their sense of community. The book's aim is to provide a more accurate and compassionate understanding of Native American life.
