I bought this to use in my 6th grade reading classroom. It is excellent to use to teach reading skills such as main idea, author's purpose, or summarizing. I put it in a center and students have 10 minutes to use the book for an assignment. Since it is at a lower reading level, students have success in building skills to use in higher level texts.

This book is a good addition to the grade 1-6 classroom library.

This series of books is absolutely wonderful for little kids, and even some older ones. They tell the story of the people who were part of our country's beginnings, in simple terms and beautiful illustrations. I look forward to buying them for my grandchildren some day.

I like these books. There is just the right amount of information. It doesn't get very indepth so my 7yr old is able to remember what we read about. A great way to learn about our history!
