Developed for elementary students, the booklet explains how Winnebago people weave baskets from the bark of the black ash tree. The booklet begins with a poem about Grandma making a basket and a story about how basket-weaving came to the Winnebago people. Both are illustrated with line drawings. The following section uses black and white photographs and short narratives to explain the procedure of making Winnebago baskets. A brief description of the black ash tree and a list of resource materials conclude the booklet. (ERB)
