Description
<p>For students ages eight to fourteen, the MY AMERICAN JOURNEY<br> series presents a true history of the United States with a cleverly helpful<br> dose of fiction.</p> <p>Each of the ten books recounts highlights from the life of a political,<br> creative, or cultural legend. But to engage a student's interest from<br> page one, a fictional narrator--usually a school-age person who somehow<br> knew the main hero--tells the story with youthful vigor.</p> <p>Adding to Deborah Hedstrom-Page's unique lessons are illustrations<br> from Sergio Martinez (Max Lucado's You Are Special). Each book also<br> contains study questions and activity pages for every chapter.</p> <p>Charles Goodnight (1836-1929) was a trailblazing cattle rancher in<br> the American West and inventor of the chuckwagon, which carried<br> food and cooking equipment. His story as retold here teaches readers<br> about the core value of honesty--telling it like it is.</p>
