Summary: Excellent Home School Resource!
Comment: Excellent Homeschool resourse for my Learning disabled Child on the Oregon Trail and Settlers. This is all visual, and Cause and effect is easy to understand in this titles' format. The great aspects of this book is the feelings of the native peoples along the way are taken into consideration, and also significatly the way this Path took its toil in the women of the movement westward. Very senstive! We used the PC game "Oregon Trail" ( latest edition) to introduce the subject, which excites them to want to know more once they get invested in the game, and this text explains for a 11-year old, pretty much all the other issues in a three-dimentional aspect that the PC game does not even touch. The PC game Oregon Trial rasied alot fo questions that this book answers fully. So glad I found this series! I used this for my 11-year old whom is learning disabled, but most children younger can also benefit from this text in addtion to regular school studies on the subject.

Summary: History of the American West for the budding MTV generation
Comment: This is a fabulous book. As a museum educator I am always on the look out for a children's book that will hold the kids interest and get them excited about history. This is the book!
The layout is great. It is almost as if the authors took the concept of computer interactives and laid them out on paper. That may not sounds terribly enticing but it is -- and it works. The information is thoughtfully prepared and presented in a way that kids should love. Questions at the bottom of each page encourage kids to jump from one topic to another as they make their journey, by covered wagon, across the American West. All the hazards and pitfalls are included, along with several vingettes of the daily life of various members of a wagon train. This is a book that shows history as vital, exciting and human.
