It gives amazing details on actual historical events even though some of the characters names are made up. It is also really wonderful for educational purposes about how our ancestors lived, dressed and worked in these times. Be sure to collect these books so that many generations can enjoy them over and over again.Asbestos Lawyers Port Arthurhttp://www.krwlawyers.com/Mesothelioma/Asbestos-Mesothelioma-Lawyer-Port-Arthur-TX.phpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52364159500107393.post-7374419681532146122014-03-12T13:31:32.999-07:002014-03-12T13:31:32.999-07:00I don't suppose they are big outside the US! ...I don't suppose they are big outside the US! Though wouldn't it be great to have a series like that for Canadian kids, too? Most of the books in the series have been very good, and the history is interesting.Rebecca M.

I haven't come across these and likely won't in Canadian libraries, but thanks for sharing your thoughts in the Kid Lit Blog Hop.Renee C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07351071483275676742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52364159500107393.post-18047797516646166822014-03-07T09:11:13.977-08:002014-03-07T09:11:13.977-08:00I have found most of the books in the series very ...I have found most of the books in the series very good, and learned a lot of history from them, too.

I have read other Dear America books, and the ones I read were well done.

That was why I was disappointed here. <br /><br />And yes, a bus tour to Yosemite and Mono Lake could well have included Bodie--it's in the neighborhood, in a manner of speaking (by the standards of the US west).Rebecca M.
