5.0 out of 5 stars
I love Rookie Readers!,
By Lynn Ellingwood "The ESOL Teacher" (Webster, NY United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Presidents' Day (Rookie Read-About Holidays) (Paperback)
Rookie Readers are great at allowing ESOL students to develop reading skills along with Social Studies and Scientific concepts. I can't get enough of them and use them with all age groups.

Rookie Read Books About Holidays are Great,
By Mystery Reader (New Haven, CT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Presidents' Day (Rookie Read-About Holidays) (Paperback)
A good addition to introduce young children to what the holiday is all about on their own terms, and reading level.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Boring, dry, and inaccurate,
By
This review is from: Presidents' Day (Rookie Read-About Holidays) (Paperback)
I own most of the Rookie Read-About Holidays series and have used the books both in the ESOL classroom and with my own children. Out of the entire series, this is my least favorite book. It's a dry, boring introduction to Presidents Day and offers only the most superficial of information about Washington and Lincoln. No other Presidents, including the current one, are mentioned, nor is the President's role well defined. The book focuses as much on the Revolutionary and Civil Wars as on Presidents Day and portrays the Civil War as a war fought exclusively over slavery and portrays all Southerners as pro-slavery and slave owners. Had I read this book before ordering, I would not have ordered it, and I will not be using it for anything other than pictures.
