"These very readable stories personalize important events and give children a feel for the times they take place. Easier to approach than historical novels, these books will appeal to children encountering the great events of American history for the first time. Each title begins with a well-illustrated narrative and concludes with a tip sheet for performing Reader's Theater as well as a list of characters, a script, and a pronunciation guide. Downloadable resources include a teaching guide, recommended reading levels, sound effect clips, suggestions for props, and printable scripts. Each book has an image file of one background illustration for projection on a screen or whiteboard, perfect for a backdrop to a performance. These books make history come alive in a unique and interesting way. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites. Highly Recommended." --Library Media Connection
