Ohio12 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 We are in SOTW III and I have the AG, but I could use just a bit more extra reading for the Pilgrim era. We are on chapter 6. Some of the books in the AG seem a little advanced for my dd because we started SOTW in K. So these would be for second grade. There HAVE to be a few more children's biographies of some of the leaders of that time. Also we are Christians and if there are any books that talk a bit more about the religious aspect. Any recs here? I am also looking for really nice picture books about this time period. (We did read some from the AG, but want a few more) Thanks, Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbeyej Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Pilgrim Voices is a good one -- it uses primary sources, edited and (in some cases) adapted to be more manageable by contemporary young students. Lovely color illustrations as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Sarah Morton's Day Samual Eaton's Day Tapenum's Day are all wonderful! Here's an Amazon link--I have found all of these at my library. I also like Stories of The Pilgrims. It spends more time on the period before they came to America. It isn't a picture book, but is written in an accessible way.
