The Native American Look Book : Art and Activities for Kids Book

Each year, The Brooklyn Museum introduces thousands of children to the world of art, teaching them not only to appreciate individual objects in the collection, but how to look at and understand art anywhere. Now, with beautiful color and black-and-white images, The Native American Look Book brings the best of the Museum1s popular collection into homes and classrooms everywhere. The book includes do-it-yourself activities, the myths and legends that inform the objects, profiles of contemporary practitioners who continue these traditional crafts today, and a list of thirty-eight Native American museums and cultural sites across the country.

Introduces Native American art and culture by examining a Kwakiutl whale mask, a Zuni water jar, and a Pomo basket at the Brooklyn Museum.
