Summary: REDCOATS AND PETTICOATS makes the Revolution come alive
Comment: Told from the perspective of a young boy, Redcoats and Petticoats makes history come alive. Young readers easily see themselves in the place of a boy puzzling over the things his mother is asking him to do and wondering if the stress of the war and his father's capture is making her crazy. Imagining themselves as such allows students to see history as real and personal experiences happening behind the anonymous dates and times and places of history texts. While this book is recommended for ages 5-9, I would encourage middle- and high-schoolers, as well as adults, to read it. The text, while simple and straightforward, is not condescending, and the story is fascinating. The laying out and building of the story maintains interest and suspense, while depicting the indomitable spirit and ingenuity of our Revolutionary patriots. I would consider this book a must-read to accompany any study of our Revolutionary period in history, or a terrific and enlightening story to read for no particular reason at all.
