Bilingual Books Published by Native Child Naadââ’ dóó Naadââ’ Ch’iyáán: Healthy Foods, My First book about Corn

by Native Child Dinetah

This book is intended to address the cultural needs of children, enabling them to become familiar with corn as a native food plant and a traditional food source. Corn is the most important Diné food and also very healthy and nutritious. It is sacred and is used in ceremonies and prayers.

Using genuine and delightful photos that reflect Navajo culture, the book introduces children to 11 traditional Navajo foods made with corn and teaches them their names in the Navajo language. This book also teaches children about the colors of corn and helps them to recognize 10 different parts of the corn plant in Diné Bizaad.

An English translation for the Navajo language vocabulary of colors, parts of corn and foods is included. Students are encouraged to answer with a full sentence. At the end of the book there are also a couple of pages that check the knowledge that children have gained.

Navajo Alphabet

by Native Child Dinetah

The letters in this Navajo Alphabet book are introduced with beautiful photos, reflecting Navajo culture, tradition and environment. Each Navajo word is spelled out in Diné Bizaad, and its corresponding English translation. Putting the Navajo consonants and vocals into a cultural context, affirms the Navajo Child’s language and identity. An added explanation and short introduction to the Navajo alphabet by Young and Morgan at the end of the book will be helpful for the reader.

Bilingual Books Published by Native Child Native Child has republished the first ever written and illustrated bilingual books. For the first time since the 1940s, these booklets are made available again to the schools in their original bilingual version, illustrated by leading Navajo artists of the twentieth century. Some are also collected and translated by Robert Young and William Morgan. These bilingual picture books are too beautiful and too historically significant to be forgotten – they describe and illustrate traditional Navajo ways that have been slowly disappearing in the last 65 years, since they were first printed at Phoenix Indian School.

Coyote Tales

by Hildegard Thompson (Adapter), Robert W. Young & William Morgan (Author), Andrew Tsihnajinnie (Illustrator)

The original Navajo Coyote Tales - beautifully colorized. For the first time since the stories were published in 1949, children and adults can read the tales of Coyote the Trickster again in Navajo and English. This edition has been newly typeset in Navajo and designed to closely resemble the original. Coyote stories were told by the elders when gathering around the fire place at night in winter. It was the traditional way to educate young listeners. Six of these delightful tales were originally collected in Navajo 75 years ago from older story tellers and translated into English.

Navajo artist Andrew Tsihnajinnie's illustrations accompany the tales – we have enhanced these outstanding drawings by reproducing the original black–and–white illustrations in color. Enjoy how coyote is always trying to trick someone, but things rarely turn out quite as he plans!

Navajo Life: A Bilingual Children's Picture Book

by Hildegard Thompson (Author), Andrew Tsihnajinnie (Illustrator), Robert Young & William Morgan (Translator)

This book tells the story of a Navajo girl named Bah and her brother Kee, beautifully illustrated by Navajo artist Andrew Tsihnijinnie. First published in 1946, it was used in schools and to teach literacy to adults on the Reservation. The bold and graphic illustrations by Andrew Tsinajinnie reflect Navajo life of that era. He was already making a living as an artist at the time and was named an Arizona Living Treasure in 1991 . Native Child has colorized the illustrations to introduce a new generation of readers to this great artist and children’s book. Preschool level.

Ann Nolan Clark’s moving stories of Navajo life as seen through the eyes of a young Navajo girl are available in print again. These poetically rendered, bilingual accounts of Navajo culture and traditions describe a sustainable way of life that is rooted in the land and linked to the seasons.

First published in 1940, they were an outstanding achievement for their sensitively rendered cultural content, establishment of a written Navajo language, and for the sheer beauty of Navajo artist Hoke Denetsosie’s illustrations. These unique books are among the most interesting and groundbreaking of all American children’s literature.

I am a Navajo boy. Diné ’ashkii nishli. A Navajo boy describes his family’s traditional way of life in the nineteen-forties of last century. It centers around a life with sheep and describes all the steps in processing the wool and weaving a rug. His father builds a hoghan out of logs, and he takes part in a cleansing ritual in the sweat lodge. Originally published in 1940 as a black and white edition by the educational division of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Native Child Dinétah has colorized the illustrations in the Reader to make it attractive again to a new generation of readers. Beautifully illustrated by a Native Navajo artist, Gerald Nailor, the book reminds us of a slower, healthier way of life.

Diné Bizaad Dictionaries The Navajo Language by Young & Morgan The Elements of Navajo Grammar with a Dictionary in Two Parts Containing Basic Vocabularies of Navajo and English

This book is a source of vocabulary and grammatical information that is indespensable for teachers and students of the Navajo language. Beginning with an explanation of the Navajo sound system, the publication is followed by a 125 page long outline of Navajo grammar. The work presented is also composed of a two part dictionary: 247 pages Navajo – English and 101 pages English – Navajo. Young and Morgan have used painstaking care in gathering, arranging and describing the numberless complex details of Navajo language. Originally published in 1943, it was supplemented with ‘The Vocabulary of Colloquial Navajo’ in 1950, using a wealth of sentence examples for each verb entry. Both publications are now once more made available by Native Child Dinétah.

A Vocabulay of Colloquial Navajo

by Young & Morgan

This dictionary is a handy practical tool for Navajo language learners and teachers at various levels. It is meant to be a companion volume to ‘The Navajo Language’ book by Robert W. Young and William Morgan. The book deals largely with extended word meanings used in colloquial Navajo and encompasses 480 pages. Originally published in 1951 and printed by Phoenix Indian School, this publication is still the best alternative to the scholarly work Young and Morgan compiled later: in 1980 the two books were combined into a reference grammar and dictionary for the academic library.

500 pages

Navajo–English Dictionary by Wall & Morgan First published in 1958, this is a simple and concise Navajo–English only dictionary. It has over 9000 entries and contains many useful every day expressions. It was originally intended for the native Navajo speaker to learn English and for non Navajos who want to acqure some knowledge of the Navajo language.

An Ethnologic Dictionary of the Navajo Language

75 pages

by the Franciscan Fathers, St Michaels

First published in 1910, An Ethnologic Dictionary of the Navajo Language is still the standard and most complete work of traditional Navajo life, social customs, religion and material culture. Its unique approach through the medium of language gives an insight into Navajo culture, unlike that of any other work. It is unique in many respects: it is an intimate, detailed and informative account of the traditional Navajo universe in all of its manifestations. This book is a great resource not only to the general reader, or student and scholar of Navajo culture, but also for Navajo parents who want to pass on traditional teachings to their children to ensure the longevity of the culture of their ancestors.

The Ramah Navhos: Tã’ohchiníjí Diné Kéédaht’ínii Baa Hane’ by the Son of Former Many Beads, Translated into English by Robert W. Young & William Morgan

Bilingual: Navajo/English: Son of Former Many Beads begins his narration by telling us that his parents had been rounded up by Kit Carson’s troops, were driven to Fort Sumner during the Long Walk period and managed to escape from imprisonment to live with the Chiricahua Apaches. He was born among the Chiricahua two years later, and returned with his family to their homeland after the tribe had been released from internment at Fort Sumner. His father, Many Beads eventually moved back to the Ramah area with his family. His narration spans the time before first contact with the white man, to the thirties of last century, relating the struggle for survival against intruding Mormons, the railroad company and the US government. This interview was recorded in 1930 and written in the Navajo language in 1954 by linguists, Young and Morgan.

The Trouble at Round Rock

by Left Handed Mexican Clansman and others

Bilingual: Navajo/English: This book tells the story of the trouble at Round Rock between Navajo Agent Shipley and Black Horse during October 1892. The stories were originally recorded in Navajo, and then translated into English. The Trouble at Round Rock includes three first–person accounts remembering the Navajo side of the event for future generations. The original edition of 1952 was printed in a limited number of 5200 books. Native Diné speakers will recognize an elaborate Navajo throughout the book that lends itself perfectly to teaching the language in the classroom today.

Navajo Historical Selections: Ádahooní’ãígíí

by Robert Yound & William Morgan Bilingual: Navajo/English: The selected articles were published in Navajo in a monthly newspaper: Ádahooníłígíí. The newspaper was distributed from 1943 to 1957 throughout the Reservation and was a predecessor of the contemporary Navajo Times. Ádahooníłígíí contributed to the standardization of Navajo orthography. The paper was edited by Robert W. Young and William Morgan, Sr. whose task it was to create a simplified Navajo alphabet with Roman letters found on an English typewriter keyboard. We find stories about the traditional Navajo country–about the Four Sacred Mountains and how the clans were created, as well as a story about Navajo scouts on the trail of Geronimo. Articles about the livestock reduction period and the resulting economic and social disaster and the long range 10 year rehabilitation program after World War II are also included.

Perfect for teaching advanced Navajo language class.

The Navajo Treaty includes: copy of the original hand written Treaty, historical events leading up to the Long Walk, Manuelito’s and Jesus Arviso’s biography, collected of 1868 and recorded oral history stories (Hwéeldi Baa Hané)

History comes alive between the pages of this book. It contains the Treaty of 1868 and many other documents, illustrations, maps and photos of the events leading up to this important day in Navajo history. The book draws its content from primary material and gives access to an extended amount of historical resources, that never before have been documented in one publication. It leads to a better understanding of a very painful history.

It is put together to be the perfect book for your Navjo history class in High School or College. An extended bibliograpy gives access to online resources that let you explore source material even further.

The Navajo War Dance

A Brief Narrative of Its Meaning & Practice

by Berard Haile, 1946

From the book, introduction: The thousands of young Navajo men who went overesas in the recent world war had no war dance held for them in preparation for combat. They are full fledged warriors who have seen and met and conquered the enemy; have seen and possibley lost blood in the struggle.They have seen many slain enemies. They will not forget any of these sights soon. In years to come they may recall these scenes, perhaps be haunted by them in sleep and dreams, alarming alike to their families and relatives. The family or entire group of relatives decides what to do in this case. More than likely then a preliminary sort of ceremony will be held. Even that requires a singer, so yu look up a tribesman who knows a few songs to get the blackening done.

The Navajo Fire Dance

A Brief Account of Its Meaning & Practice

by Berard Haile, 1946

Text from the book, Haile describes all the different events taking place: Locally the dance is called the Fire Dance in which dancers chase one another around a huge fire and that is not done in any other Navajo dance. For that same reason they are known as fire dancers which, by no means inplies the they carry firebrands or handle live fire. We have also called them white dancers, not so much on the score of having their bodies painted white, but because they cause the downy feather to reappear after it had disappeared. The dance is also called the Corral Dance, by reason of the corral of boughs in which the huge fire must be built.

Little Hopi Hopihoya Hopi Text by Albert Yava

by Edward A. Kennard

Illustrations by Charles Loloma

bilingual English/Hopi Little Hopi is made up of comical tales about the young Peeni and his experiences growing up.

They include the story of Peeni receiving his bow and arrow from the katsinas, the mischievous “little warriors” shooting up the watermelon patch, and Peeni and his uncle going on a rabbit hunt. The stories provided bilingual reading material for children in Hopi schools at the time.

For the purpose of language instruction, they serve the children then and now well by presenting traditional Hopi life accurately in the Hopi language. The book describes many of the activities Hopi youth was engaged in at that time.

Little Hopi was a collaboration in the early forties between the BIA’s Indian language specialist Edward A. Kennard, a Hopi Tewa interpreter Albert Yava and the artist Charles Loloma. Although a painter, potter and sculptor, Loloma became best known later on in life for his jewelry, which has been exhibited at museums and galleries around the world. Kennard collected Hopi oral traditions from Albert Yava, translated them into English, and then with Yava translated them back into written Hopi.

A Story of Zuni Pueblo

by Ann Clark (Author) and Zuni artist Percy Sandy Tsisete (Illustrator)

Sun Journey is the story of a young Zuni boy’s return from boarding school and his preparations for the Shaloko ceremony in his pueblo. As the returned school boy reconnects with his community, his formal education becomes less important. His Native people’s culture and traditions turn out to be of higher value than formal schooling alone. In the 21 chapters, the boy and the reader learn from his grandfather the important lessons of Zuni life through the seasons - from making and planting prayer-sticks, gathering of wild plants and planting corn, to the yearly trip to the Salt Lakes and traditional stick races, games and dances. Suitable for ages 8 and up, this delightful and valuable resource describing traditional Zuni life will intrigue readers of all ages.

Originally published in 1945, Sun Journey is a reissue of a volumn in the Pueblo Series of Indian Life Readers, Publications of the Branch of Education, Bureau of Indian Affairs. For the first time since 1945, the book is available once again in its original bilingual edition: Native Child Dinétah is republishing it in English and Spanish.

About the Author The author Ann Clark began teaching at the Zuni Black Rock school in 1923, serving there for 25 years. She taught in various schools with Native American students for an additional 17 years.

About the Illustrator Born at the Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico, his Native American name is "Kai Sa," meaning Red Moon. He is also known as Percy Sandy Tsisete. He married Peggy Mirabel of the Taos Pueblo, and they lived in Taos. As a child at the Zuni Day School, he was told to paint and discovered he loved the activity. At age 18, he took formal art instruction at Albuquerque and also studied at the Sherman Institute in Santa Fe. His goal as an artist became "depicting authentically the customs of my people”.

The code and language that the Japanese could not break in the Pacific war, nor even know its origins. How the Navajo Code Talkers came about, their training and the uses to which they were put to in the island hopping war against the Japanese. Plus the prices the Navajo paid and the long term secrecy which they were bound by.

Then ultimately the long deserved recognition for their heroic efforts in helping win the war. All this is shown by archive footage and photographs, plus interviews with the people involved.

Exploring the personal and heartfelt story of the Navajo Code Talkers, this program tells the stories of the young Navajo men recruited from harsh government boarding schools into the Marines during World War II. From 1942-1945, the Code Talkers devised an unbreakable code in their native language and transmitted vital messages in the midst of combat against the Japanese.

Sheep is life: Story of he Navajo-Churro sheep which is the original domestic breed that sustained the Navajo, Pueblo and Hispanic people for nearly 400 years. On the verge of extinction a generation ago, the Navajo-Churro is making a comeback.

Used for both wool and as a source of lean, healthy meat. the Churro is a desert animal that can take care of itself; is more droughttolerant; has a higher lambing rate; has healthier lean meat; can produce two wool crops a year; and that the wool is easier to use and more durable.
