All books were borrowed from the library.
1. A Wicked History-Ivan the Terrible by Sean Price
I read this book over a few days to my sons. It is labeled as "Young Adult". Although the sentence structure and word choice are suitable for elementary age, the content may be shocking and offensive to sensitive readers.
2. Peter the Great by Diane Stanley
A longer picture book suitable for late elementary age.
3. Country Profiles- Russia
Great photographs The facts displayed in graph-form were eye-appealing, interesting and easy to read.
4. Social Studies Explorer Russia by Katie Marsico
Great photographs; activities to try-(We made and drank a tea recipe.)
5. Foods of Russia by Barbara Sheen
Lots of recipes and photographs
We especially liked reading about "taking tea with a bit".
6. Welcome to Russia by Elma Schemenauer
Simpler text with lots of photographs
