Happy Birthday Usa!

Über Happy Birthday Usa!

Victory in the French and Indian War cost the British plenty. At the war's end in 1763, King George III and his government decided to tax American colonies to recoup war costs. A series of taxes were passed against the American Colonies. And when the Crown tried to tax tea, that was the last straw for the colonists. Penelope Dyan takes a look at our history through her poetry and art and seeks to teach kids what they do not seem to be taught anymore. It used to be that year after year school kids were inundated with the familiar phrases and other acts in American history that became the birthright of all Americans, George Washington and the Delaware, Paul Revere's famous ride, the signing of the declaration of independence, the Boston Tea Party, Betsy Ross and her creation of the Colonial American Flag, and Patrick Henry's famous phrase, "Give me liberty or give me death!" are just a few of the forgotten pages of history addressed in a fun and entertaining way in this book. Penelope Dyan as a former K-12 teacher knows how to make learning history fun and entertaining, and she has outdone herself in this book aimed at the younger crowd, but enjoyed by all who peruse these pages. Dyan is an award winning poet and author who knows and loves kids, and kids love Dyan and her books. You can't go wrong with a Bellissima book. A Bellissima book is a mind investment!
