| I'm not sure how this product could have been made to be more interesting. My 13-year-old sat down and put the whole thing together in about 20 minutes. That was easy enough but the cost of the kit was far too expensive for a plastic doll and some gauze wrapping. |

| 133.A More Perfect Union: The Story of Our Constitution by: Betsy Maestro October 26, 1990 |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |

|
| This book gives an understandable view of how our Constitution came to be. It is good to read in context with studying other aspects of the colonial time period as well as the Revolutionary War. There is a great map at the beginning and resources at the back with the preamble as well as an explanation of the Articles and Amendments. There is a list of all the signers, a summary of important dates and bit of interesting facts about the convention and delegates. Definitely a good resource. |

|
| Yeah I really enjoyed reading this and I recommended this to kids who like this kind of stuff. This wasn't really meant for older people, obviously... But it is still well made and worth reading. I used to read these books when I was little, and I still really like them. |

|
| King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table is the best book i`ve ever read! Right when you`re done you`ll hear swords banging together in your head! It`s from King Arthur being crowned king all the way to saving Camelot and the last battle of the land of Logres. I highly recommend it. |

| 136.The Trojan Horse: How the Greeks Won the War (Step-Into-Reading, Step 5) by: Emily Little November 08, 1988 |

| Average Rating: >>More Details |
 |
|
| This is a very competent introduction to The Iliad and The Aeneid for children (the story really conflates elements of the two epics, e.g., there is no Trojan Horse in the Iliad). The book presents a plausible political back drop for the conflict (that does not appear in either epic but makes sense), as well as Helen's betrothal to Paris, as the catalysts for the conflict. There are battle scenes. The construction of the horse, Sinon's deception, and the ultimate fall of Troy are well dramatized in language easily undertood ... Read More: |

| 137.. . . If You Traveled on the Underground Railroad by: Ellen Levine, Larry Johnson February 01, 1993 |

|
| The book cites a different time.... a different place... what if you were there?
Before the popular fads we see on the net such as the mullet man time traveler, ytmnd war on ebaum, Riding Spinners, or even before a boxer had his bike stolen, this book tells the tale of the struggling era of America... The underground railroad. Was it really an underground railroad? The book has nice coloured pictures for kids to easily visualize and the narration is great. |

| 138.If You Lived With The Hopi Indians (If You.) by: Anne Kamma November 01, 1999 |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |
 |
|
| I was impressed with the accuracy and sensitivity of this book until it started talking about the katsinam as "men dressed as kachinas" and I was shocked at the drawing of men holding katsina masks. These are sacred matters which should NOT be presented in this manner in a book intended for children. Hopi children should not be exposed to this kind of information. |

| 139.If You Made a Million by: David M. Schwartz 1994-09 |

|
| This book does an excellent job encouraging young children to create a secure financial future for themselves. It sparks interest in the toddlers who were previously bored with the topic of personal financial planning. They'll have their calculators out and be balancing the books in NO TIME!! Great introduction for youngsters. |

| I like to see what is on the bookshelfs for youngsters regarding paranormal topics. I loved to read these books as a kid. I was hoping to see some higher quality books by this time, some 30 years later. I'm not too impressed. This book is very disappointing. The only plus is the wealth of pictures that are interesting and should capture attention. The authors state these creatures were "investigated". The list of references used is abysmally short. Most of what is given is regurgitated from older books including misconceptions or mistakes just carried ... Read More: |
