I enjoyed this book because it gives various facts about the American Revolution through the alphabet. The American Revolution was an 8 year fight that was the beginning of the United States of America. Some facts topics covered in this book include the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the Declaration of Independence, Independence Hall, and the Battle of the Kogs. It also discusses important people during this time including George Washington, John Hancock, and Henry Knox. This would be a great book to incorporate into a history/social studies lesson plan because it is very informational and entertaining to read. ( ) Boys at my school are very interested in war. There is very little out there for these boys. I noticed when I was reading all the old Newbery winners that many of the older titles dealt with fighting and war, subjects that appeal to boys. Why are these types of books no longer written about?This is a simple alphabet book about the Revolutionary War. A sample:“J is for JeffersonThomas Jefferson, one of the founders of the United States, was the main author of the Declaration of Independence and the third president. He was a lawyer, architect, writer, inventor, and musician. Jefferson died on July 4, 1826, exactly fifty years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence.”Children’s reactions:This was not a popular choice among the children who previewed the book. A few boys liked the book’s scenes of fighting, but, for the most part, there was a ho-hum reaction. It seems to need an older reader. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
