The Best Native American Heritage Books for Middle School Students: Meaningful Reads They’ll Love – Podcast

Middle school is a wonderful time for students to explore stories that expand their view of identity, heritage, and culture — while also enjoying strong characters, engaging plots, and thoughtful themes. These five Native American Heritage books do just that.

1. Indian No More by Charlene Willing McManis and Traci Sorell
2. Race to the Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse
