Star Booklist Review of Right to Vote: American Indians' Right to Vote

With the upcoming presidential election, kids may have questions about the election process in the U.S. This book in The Right to Vote series (4 titles) aptly highlights the inequality in voting rights for Native Americans, highlighting how their vote was historically oppressed and how that continues today. After first defining voting and its importance, the text pivots to Native American history, their diaspora, and the criminal acts of the U.S. government against Indigenous peoples. Maps illustrate how American Indian land loss worsened over time, and pictures of notable Native Americans, such as Zitkala-Sa, serve as powerful images. Bright, colorful blocks pair with black-and-white photographs alongside text bubbles with glossary words to draw the eye to pertinent facts. Questions for readers throughout the book will help kids think through the issue deeply. The inclusion of positive changes adds a hopeful tone to the conclusion. A parent-and-teacher guide prefaces the main text, offering helpful information and discussion prompts. A time line and glossary round out this candid resource.
