Native American Books for Kids
Indigenous peoples have in common a historical continuity with a given region prior to colonization and a strong link to their lands. Most of the titles are by Indigenous and First Nations authors and/or illustrators. You'll find both stories and nonfiction, as well as some that are historical and others that are contemporary. The books range in age from 3 on up. (Updated October 2025)

At the Mountain's Base
"At the mountain's base sits a cabin under an old hickory tree. And in that cabin lives a family -- loving, weaving, cooking, and singing. The strength in their song sustains them through trials on the ground and in the sky, as they wait for their loved one, a pilot, to return from war."--Amazon.
