Extractions: October 1998; June 1999; February 2002; January 2004 In my dual roles as Native American Studies Librarian and children's literature specialist at the Humboldt State University Library I am often asked to recommend "good" Native American children's books. I have prepared this bibliography as an introduction to a complex topic. I invite the reader to explore the selections, bearing in mind that although I have attempted to include the major works on the subject, I have also noted items of specific interest to the local, California community. This was initially prepared as an example of an annotated bibliography for my class, Professional Studies 180: Library Sources in Education, Fall 1998. Multicultural Review , 1(2), 26-33. The authors were president and secretary of the American Indian Library Association at the time this article was written; it is an adaptation of a program presented at the American Library Association Annual Conference in 1991. The selective annotated bibliography is in four parts: recommended titles, titles to avoid, guides to selecting books and sources of current reviews, and sources for books on Indians. This is an excellent, accessible introduction to the subject. Charles, J. (1996). Out of the cupboard and into the classroom: children and the American Indian literary experience.

Extractions: Brief History There was a time when little or no distinction was made about the age for which literary works were intended. Few enough people could read anything, so most written works were directed at a small minority of educated people; oral literature (folklore), which provided a source of entertainment for the mass of people, was necessarily presented to mixed audiences. With the rise in literacy that accompanied the development of mechanical printing and the spread of trade (which required written records and communications), the audience for writing began to be differentiated. The first book written specifically for children was John Amos Comenius's Orbis Sensualium Pictus (ca. 1657), a kind of visual encyclopedia of the world as it existed in the middle of the 17th century.
