This is a wonderful and accurate book to use to enhance unitson colonial life in America. After my family visited ColonialWilliamsburg, I felt the need to share the things that I had learnedwith my students. What a super job this author has done to assist inthis area. The illustrations are accurate interpretations of thehistorical buildings in Williamsburg. This book is easily adapted toall elementary levels. It is a great book to share with your ownchildren to teach them about our country's history.
