Read from March 19 to 27, 2012

This book highlights (albeit briefly) the lives and contributions of one or two children in each of the major historical periods of U.S. history. The writing is straightforward and clear, and I found myself constantly turning the page to read about "just one more" kid. Teachers especially might enjoy using/sharing this book as it gives a different and welcome perspective in addition to the standard history textbooks, which admittedly feature legions of grown-ups.
