N2  - This book provides an integrated approach to teaching the mystery and fascination of the animals, plants, insects and planets that inhabit the world of night. It combines traditional native stories with excellent environmental activities to teach about the Earth. The reader is taught the Native North American concept that night is a crucial part of the balance that is the root of the harmonious workings of the universe. Like all the dualities of life--winter and summer, male and female--the night and the day complement one another and maintain the natural balance. The book provides a map of Native North America showing cultural areas and locations as they appeared around 1600. There is also a glossary of Native words, names and cultures, as well as a general index
