This review is from: B Is For Bluegrass: A Kentucky Alphabet (Discover America State By State. Alphabet Series) (Hardcover)
This is a remarkable book that really helps with the Kentucky Unit required in the 4th grade. I am a 4th grade teacher and have used this book to illustrate and introduce concepts. Its best used a page at a time - not to be sat down and read to everyone. I cannot say enough about this book.
