Indian Life



My name is Kita. I am a Northwest Coast Indian. My home is like a wooden tree house. I live on something like an island at the edge of the ocean or river. Being a woman I can only wear a dress. Our food is not a big variety only fish and deer. Most days I clean clothes or maybe try to find some food. I also watch the children. The nature is great. Being Indian is not half bad. Especially with two great parents and a brother and a sister who love you with all their heart.
