"Navajo Rugs and Blankets: A Coloring Book" is an excellent supplement to children's books about Navajo weaving. The first section in this book introduces the Navajo world and historical information about the significance of their woven rugs. All of these introductory pages have a few sentences of text with related pictures to color. The rest of the book is coloring pages of individual rug patterns, which were often named for the region of their origin. The pattern names are given with color suggestions. The pictures of the rugs are informative for anyone (adults included) who want to see rug patterns in their most basic forms.What I like most about this book is that the pictures are not overly simplified as a preschooler's basic coloring book, but are also not overly detailed. This book is just right for elementary children of all ages and any middle schooler who may still like a good coloring book. I have owned several copies of this book and have shared pages with elementary students and it has always been a hit for those quiet moments in the day!
This coloring book packs a double wallop. It is both informative and entertaining. I would recommend it to children and adults of all ages who are interested a in short, simple, understandable, and fun lesson about Navajo traditions and blankets.
this book is surprising to me. some of the drawing are patterns of rugs and I will use them when weaving.
