Summary: Learning History Made Intesting -- and Fun!
Comment: "The American Revolution" is the 11th book in the "American Adventure" series. So far, my nine year-old son and I have taken turns reading aloud the first 14 books in the series. Although the books are aimed at 8-12 year-olds, I have thoroughly enjoyed reading and listening to the engaging stories. "The American Adventure" series is historical fiction at its finest! This is definitely NOT the dry, boring, dumbed-down stuff of my school years...
Readers will "experience" history as seen through the eyes of girls and boys their own age. Combining "The American Adventure" books - numbers 6 thru 12 cover the American Revolution --with a couple of non-fiction books, such as the excellent "Brown Paper School USKids History: Book of the American Revolution" (ISBN 0-316-96922-2), your reader will have a very comprehensive knowledge of this period in our country's history.
From the back cover of "The American Revolution" -
"Stephen Lankford and his cousin, Anna Allerton, are shocked when they see a group of men dump a shipment of tea into the Boston Harbor. Then they overhear a British admiral threaten revenge as a result of this "Tea Party." Soon all of Boston is suffering.
Stephen's parents and older brother are Patriots, willing to risk everything to gain independence from England. Anna's parents are Loyalists, who feel honor-bound to support the king. When Stephen's older brother, Will, asks him to spy for the Patriots right in Uncle Cuyler's shop, Stephen is torn.
Then Anna discovers what Stephen is doing. Will she report his actions to the British soldiers? And will the approaching war destroy Anna and Stephen's families?
