4.0

Age: Preschool-2nd grade
Culture: Cherokee nation
Emotions: Gratitude

By saying otsaliheliga (we are grateful), the Cherokee people celebrate their blessings and reflect on struggles year round. A delightful read-aloud that highlights Cherokee cultural traditions, customs, and history within the framework of changing seasons. Cherokee words appear in the roman alphabet, phonetic transcription, Cherokee syllabary, and an English translation.

Great for units/storytimes on seasons, gratitude, family, and Native American nations.
