Many great books to help kids explore the wonderful world of Native American Heritage
Duke and Daisy explored the history of Native Americans and loved what they found.

For the full description of the Native American journey over the thousands of years, Duke and Daisy share it in the Scholastic’s overview of Native Americans.
