This children's book follows Celinda McKelvey, a 13-year-old Navajo girl, as she performs and celebrates Kinaalda, a traditional Navajo rite-of-passage ceremony. Clear color photographs and an informed text (the author is a Navajo), make this a helpful window in to the traditions of Native Americans and how they are practiced today, for middle school children.
