Book summary

Convincing young readers to learn about history can be challenging, but Allen and Nicole Kim s American History 1 solves the problem by casting the story in vibrant comic-book form. Starting with the ancient migrations from 300,000 BC, this exciting edu-comic hits all the highlights, from the Mayflower settlers and their dealings with the Native Americans, to the emergence of trade in furs and wood, to the birth of a new democracy and the War of Independence from England. In addition to the big events, American History 1 visualizes the drama of daily life in the "great experiment" that was early America. [via]
