The book of my dreams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Betsy Ross : Designer of Our Flag (Paperback)
I love the book but the title is wrong. Betsy Ross really wasn't the designer of the flag. She was just asked to sew the flag because of her great talent in sewing. I read this book because I went to the Betsy Ross house and thought she was really cool. When I read this book, I felt like I really knew her. She is so interesting having 3 husbands and surviving through the war between the British troops and George Washington's Continental army. I think that I'd like to know about her later life more.

Not Helpful,
By A Customer
This review is from: Betsy Ross : Designer of Our Flag (Paperback)
This book was not very helpful in doing my biography report. It spends too much time talking about her life as a 6 year old, and not enough time talking about making the flag. Also, Betsy Ross didn't design the flag -- she sewed the flag. This book was originally written almost 50 years ago and is seriously in need of updating to relate to today's readers.
