"Our American Story" series
The cover did not draw me to it but wow, this book does a wonderful job of sharing Washington's life from the time he fought in the Revolutionary War to his retirement. The last page also talks about the Washington Monument. It is also wonderful because it shares how our country was started and all the work people dedicated to make sure it was run well. The U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights are mentioned.
I like it especially because the text was written simply enough that mature preschooler could sit and listen and learn. Not many books out about the presidents that can accomplish that!
*Highly recommend.
Text structure: timeline, glossary, learn more section
More in this series: The First American Flag, Paul Revere's Ride, Writing the U.S. Constitution.
