TWO INDIAN CHILDREN OF LONG AGO by Frances Lilian Taylor (PDF ebook)

Great chapter book that describes the child life in the Wild-Rice region west of the Great Lakes and retells several of the most interesting stories enjoyed by Indian children. Well written and beautifully illustrated, the aim of the book is, as the author puts it in her Afterword, "to gratify the American child's natural interest in primitive life by stories of our own land and to increase his respect for all that is original and worthy
in the lives of the First Americans."
