January 25th was Multicultural Children's Book Day. I received 5 books to review. Each book will receive it's own post. Check out books reviewed by other readers https://multiculturalchildrensbookday.com/the-mcbd2019-diverse-book-link-up-is-open-readyourworld/
C is for Chickasaw by Wiley Barnes Illustrations by Aaron Long
These two companion books blew my socks off. The first book uses the alphabet to tell the Chickasaw story, in a very concise way. I really liked that the author not only include the "Old Time" history, but included "contemporary" history and the people involved. The author shows that the Chickasaw culture is a living and growing culture.
Contents:
The companion book, is a coloring book by the same author and illustrator. I think using the two books together will provide the reader with many opportunities to learn about the Chickasaw nation.

I wanted to also mention that there is an app available. On Google Play, Amazon, and Apple for IOS and Android devises.
