The Flag of My Country = Shikéyah Bidah Na'at'a'í

** "The Flag of My Country = Shikéyah Bidah Na'at'a'í" by Cecil S. King is an educational book from the 1950s geared toward young Navajo people learning English, where the story follows a Navajo boy who thinks about his life, home in Arizona, and everything the American flag means to him and his family. Through easy-to-understand language and pictures, the reader learns about his feelings about his relatives, his daily chores with the sheep, and his time at school; with all of it, the boy dreams about what he wants to do when he grows up and how he can give back to his community. The flag ends up showing his Navajo roots and that getting an education has many possibilities in America. **
