I think the whole Philippine war could have been avoided if these books had been distributed in the Philippines.

Personally I believe we should start with the money tree. Maybe it has the answer on how to grow money trees and help us create an inflation, soon we can carry barrels of money around. Thats my long lost dream.

Carlisle, I think we definitely need to read these in class. I feel they further our educaton about America. And we could be the test guinea pigs for your classes next year. Story time was always the best part of the day in elementary school :)

Come on, Carlisle. You're supposed to teach from a PBS Kids tv show. Come on now.... Let's learn from that one show where people could pop back in time to really random things.... Ooooh, wait! Actually, there were those Treehouse Kids books or something.... Teach from those! Because they are totally accurate about each and every one of the historical events they were trying to mimic....

I agree with Michael. As long as you promise to pause and show us the pictures!

Less reading in history class..more pictures!

These are great. Teaching the children of tomorrow the values of Today. I love America. I love Children's books. This combination is better than peanut and butter. You can't spell "Freedom" without the "reed." America's children need to learn how to reed.
Also, RON PAUL 2012!!!!!
