Sharing Our World - Animals of the Native Northwest Coast - Board Book

 By Garfinkel Publications

I really liked the art and layout of this board book.  It was nice to look through with the kids.

However, it is really not appropriate for babies.  There is way too much text.
 Plus, on the first page it starts with an ancestor.  I can't even describe what an ancestor is to my 3 year old.  What in the world does the baby even think this is?

While looking up info on this book, I discovered that it was originally a 28 page picture book for older kids.  That makes so much more sense and would have been so much better.  I'll have to look into it for later.

Learn to Count with Northwest Coast Native Art

 With art by:

Ryan Cranmer
Corey Bulpitt
Eric Parnell
Francis Dick
Maynard Johnny Jr.
Terry Starr
My parents picked this up at the Vancouver Art Gallery.  It's basically the prettiest counting book we have.  I hope my kids enjoy native art when they're older.
