It was getting buzz in Native networks on social media. I've read it, now, and highly recommend it... Dreaming in Indian has a vibrancy I've not seen in anything else. A vibrancy that, perhaps, is characteristic of a generation at ease with technology and its tools... I want to pore over the art, studying it, thinking about it, marveling at it. I can imagine a lot of people dismissing this work because it doesn't conform to their stereotypical ideas of dead or stoic Indians. But I can also imagine a lot of others holding it dear because it reflects who we are... You'll also have a solid introduction to the artists and writers, their lives, what drives them... Gritty and real, their live stories are inspiring... There's a lot to ponder in Dreaming In Indian. It'll challenge readers, in good ways, and that is a good thing. Check it out.--Debbie Reese"American Indians in Children's Literature" (09/08/2014)<br><br>An outstanding anthology sure to engage youth in discussions about 21st century Native American culture.--Annette Lamb"Library Thing" (10/15/2014)<br><br>This slim book effectively presents honest portrayals of strong, hopeful, and courageous indigenous youth living nonstereotypical lives.
