TARGET: Native American fiction authenticity?

[tunafish <tunas3@BCN.NET>]

Summer greetings.  I'm working on a time travel (historic fiction) book
for kids to peruse in my library.   I'm illustrating and writing one
page catchy reviews - in chronological order.  So.... as I work my
memory and don't have the books at home I;m using Amazon for help!
So... I'm reading the customer comments on Sing Down the Moon and a
serious issue of authenticity comes up. (There was an excellent article
in Hornbook this year about historic fiction). I remember someone posted
serious questions about the Dear America Native story earlier.  Is there
a Native American source for checking the quality of information in N.A.
fiction?  Is Sing Down the Moon filled with missinformation? Stay Cool!
