Description
There is no doubt that more and more, kids are becoming visual learners. That is why this innovative book uses infographics to tell the story of North America’s first peoples. Infographics are visual representations of information, data, or knowledge. They are very effective in presenting complex information quickly and clearly, as in charts, maps, pictographs, and timelines.
With very little text and simple, highly colorful illustrations, this book will help kids discover an astonishing amount of information about Native American history, culture, and society. From their migration from Asia many thousands of years ago to modern times, Native Americans explores such topics as housing, food, means of communication, types of government, and language.
Kids will find answers to such questions as: How did climate change affect the movement of Native peoples? How did Plains tribes use the bison as a “walking department store”? How many beaver pelts did northern tribes have to trade for an ax? What are their issues today? and many more.
Vibrant, dynamic, and packed with surprising facts and figures, Native Americans is an essential book for anyone interested in North America’s first people.
