A resource guide to Native American Literature by Dorothea Susag
Dorothea Susag, Montana’s Christa McAuliffe Fellowship Recipient for 1992-93, wrote a resource book, Roots and Branches: A Resource of Native American Literature – Themes, Lessons and Bibliographies. Summer Kitchen Press boasts about this book because of its credibility with Native American writers. As a high school English teacher, Susag teaches about the six traits of writing. She shows how literature by and for Native Americans can enhance literacy for children and teens and preserve the culture and heritage of tribal entities across the United States. Our www.helpbooks.com book site features book reviews by Susag that cover these six traits of writing; namely ideas, organization, conventions, voice, word choice and sentence fluency.
