Author Description

We call ourselves T'aa Dine, which means The People. We are also called the Navajo. And so begins this introduction to the largest tribe of Native Americans in the United States. Come and learn all about Navajo life through objects and words in this special alphabet book. Each letter represents an aspect of Navajo life -- A for arroyo, B for belt, C for cradle board. A unique glossary translates Navajo words into English, and vice versa, to open the door to tradition and convey the richness of the Dine culture and language.
