About The Author
With Exploring Indigenous Novels in Grades 5-10: Literature Studies Focusing on Indigenized Worlds Don Philpot gives us a very good tool to teach and learn Indigenous cultures and peoples. Presenting a diversity of literary genres for children (historical, fantasy, realist contemporary), Philpot offers teachers and students a series of concrete exercises that will transform their understanding of their cultures. All libraries should have it, all teachers should read it, and we all should know about it.
