This book would be good for primary to intermediate students. This book is "Rock Your Mocs" by Laurel Goodluck, illustrated by Madelyn Goodnight, and published in 2023. This book talks about different Native tribes and how moccasins are still worn to this day and how they are prideful. This can help with identity in the classroom and can help kids feel confident celerbating their heritage and their culture.

This would be a good book for primary and intermediate readers
This book is about a day to wear mocs in order celebrate the colors and art of the Native American Culture. It provides cultural context and uses words within their language to describe all of the different aspects of their culture
This would be a great book to have in a classroom to provide an opportunity for students to gain new perspective on Native American culture. It would also be useful during a unit where they are learning about different cultures to provide more insight.

As Heartdrum publisher Cynthia Leitich Smith writes in her note, Rock Your Mocs is "...joyful...it showcases the diversity within the intertribal community...it radiates Native pride..."

Rock Your Mocs day was established in 2011 and is celebrated on November 15 each year. Each page and spread of this book shows different Native kids rocking their mocs with style; each is rendered uniquely.
