<p class="MsoNormal">Hello everyone, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Welcome to Monday! I wanted to share a couple links with you today.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The first is an <a href="https://bookriot.com/native-childrens-literature/">
interview with Cynthia Leitich Smith</a> and several other Native American writers with Book Riot’s Kelly Jensen about publishing Native American literature for children and teens.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cynthia Leitich Smith also co-wrote an article <a href="https://www.slj.com/?detailStory=How-native-indigenous-writers-talk-story-honoring-authentic-voices-in-books-for-young-people-Libraries">
How Native Writers Talk Story</a> published last week in School Library Journal with Traci Sorell, who wrote the multiple award-winning
<a href="https://www.tracisorell.com/we-are-grateful-otsaliheliga">We Are Grateful</a>. I found this article very helpful as a non-Native reader coming to these stories and thought some of you may find it helpful too.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Lastly, if you’ve never looked at <a href="https://americanindian.si.edu/">
The National Museum of the American Indian</a>, there are some key K-12 educator resources as well as virtual exhibitions and virtual programming that may be beneficial as you think about building collections. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best, <o:p></o:p></p>
