I am writting some focus questions for the book " Touching spirit bear" and the other questions are...

What does the at.oow* symbolize? What symbols are apart ofyour life? Why is it improtant to understant symblos from other cultures?


*- at.oow is a warm small blanket used by the native americans to symbloized warmth, love and trust
PLEASE HELP!!
 
Well, Linus has a safety blanket as well, so people understand that. Bikes, apple pie, cars, money, briefcases, suits, ice cream, McDonalds - all of these things mean more than they are. Look at any Americana store or Americana images and you will see the same things photographed and framed over and over - turkey dinners, chickens, cows, skyscrapers. All of them mean country or city, prosperity or tradition, etc.
