This series is a great way 'in' to teaching Social Studies. They tell a story kids can relate to and begin to see history as more real when they see its players as real people who felt just as they do. My students love them and can't get enough of the stories. Highly recommended.
Cute book. Lots of information for the curious and studying grade schooler. Helped a lot with a report we had to do
My daughter loved this one, I'm glad we were able to find it here on . These are great books!
