This
is a wonderful book that contains different Native American lullabies from
different tribes. The songs each have different themes about nature, animals,
and also the love of family. There are also pictures of some children and toys
they play with. This is a great tool for young children, so even if they
personally don’t know any Native Americans when they are growing up, they can
learn to respect the cultures of others and perhaps even relate what they learn
to their own love of family and traditions. As a music teacher, this would then
allow me to introduce music of other cultures and how meanings and the music
differs from one Native tribe to another.
