Best Children's book On the Iroquois

I was referred to this book by the contributing editor, Barbara Gray-Kanatiyosh. She is a Mohawk lady who has an Iroquois Homework Help team (***) where she answers questions about her people's culture. I was very impressed by Kanatiyosh's web site and the help she gave me and was thrilled when I bought this book. Now I can teach my nieces and nephews about the Iroquois and know the information given is culturally sensitive and accurate. The artwork and photos of the Iroquois people are wonderful and new. Not the same old pictures and information you see in every Iroquois book. My favorite sections are the ones explaining Iroquois society and how longhouses are built. This book is wonderful. I am surprised it hasn't won an award yet!
