Native Bookshelf 2024
Stacie Shannon Denetsosie’s life on the Navajo Nation is the inspiration for many of her imaginative stories in the collection, The Missing Morningstar: And Other Stories, published this year.
Ojibwe writer Marcie Rendon’s illustrated children’s book, Stitches of Tradition (Gashkigwaaso Tradition), measures time and culture through the ribbon skirts a grandmother makes through the years.
And Danica Nava’s romance novel, The Truth According to Ember, has readers rooting for its Chickasaw protagonist to get the guy.
Those are among the books that our expert readers will review in our look back on notable works by Indigenous authors.

Guests on Native America Calling
Andrea L. Rogers (Cherokee), author, undergraduate professor at the Institute of American Indian Arts, and a PhD student at the University of Arkansas
Calvin Crosby (Cherokee), owner of King’s English Bookshop and executive director of Brain Food Books, both located in Utah
