If I was starting a library in a high school, these are the first books I'd buy, along with the ten listed in 2010: Best Books, High School. Rethinking Columbus: The Next 500 Years, edited by Bill Bigelow Killer of Enemies, by Joseph Bruchac Update on Sep 30 2023: I (Debbie Reese) no longer recommend Bruchac's work. For details see Is Joseph Bruchac truly Abenaki? The Round House, by Louise Erdrich House of Purple Cedar, by Tim Tingle Code Talker Stories, by Laura Tohe The Moon of Letting Go: And Other Stories, by Richard Van Camp Robopocalypse, by Daniel H. Wilson Short annotations for these books are at School Library Journal in a column I wrote for them in November of 2013: Resources and Kit Lit about American Indians.
