Canada! : Exploring This Land from Coast to Coast to Coast
by Vivien Bowers, Daniel C. Hobbs
- Finally! A textbook that wont bore kids! This fun, easy-to-read
journal follows a familys trip across Canada. Its filled with
facts as presented in the running commentary of a 12-year-old
boy, Guy. The family travels to every province and territory
in Canada, beginning in British Columbia. Guy suspects the trip
is supposed to be educational because, as he says, My mom used
to be a teacher and she cant always turn it off.

- A Pioneer Sampler : The Daily Life of a Pioneer
Family in 1840
by Barbara Greenwood, Heather Collins (Illustrator)
- Greenwood blends fiction and fact to provide the reader with
a full picture of mid-nineteenth-century pioneer life. A narrative
begins each section and is followed by information about the
work the fictitious Robertson family members are engaged in and
a project for the reader to try. The illustrations are clear
and useful.
