5.0 out of 5 stars very evocative stories and pictures, March 20, 2002
By "cynthialeethomson" (Northampton, MA United States) - See all my reviews
I loved this book, and use it as a resource for my own dollmaking. There are elegant, clean photos of toys and dolls from different traditions and geographical areas of North America, and there are stories to go along with each chapter. The stories moved me as strongly as the images. I recommend it as an avenue for understanding the cultures that preceeded ours on this continent, and to dispell some of the myths we all carry about Native Americans.
