Yes. Try Barry H. Lopez's Giving Birth to Thunder, Sleeping with His Daughter and Joseph Bruchac just to scratch the surface.

You might try Weston LaBarre's The Ghost Dance (etc.), Antonin Artuad's The Peyote Dance, The Popol Vuh, etc.

To add to the list of fictional works, Dreamspeaker is an interesting young adult novel situated among the Indians of British Columbia.

For the kids, check out anything by Paul Goble

John Bierhorst's The Red Swan: Myths and Tales of the American Indians is a classic. And there's the Time/Life Mother Earth, Father Sky: Native American Myth (Myth & Mankind , Vol 4, No 20).

Betty Jumper's Legends of the Seminoles is a gorgeously illustrated kid's book.
