About this product

Product Information

Recommended by the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy as an exemplary informational text.Thousands of years--way before Christopher Columbus set sail--wandering tribes of hunters made their way from Asia across the Bering land bridge to North America. They didn't know it, but they had discovered a New World. The First Americans is a fascinating re-creation of pre-Columbian Native American life, and it's an adventure of a lifetime! Hunt seals with the Inuit; harvest corn on a cliff-top mesa; hunt the mighty buffalo; and set sail with Leif Erickson, Columbus, and all the early great explorers--Cabot, Balboa, Ponce de Leon, Cortes, Henry the Navigator, and more--in this brilliantly told story of America before it was America.About the Series:Master storyteller Joy Hakim has excited millions of young minds with the great drama of American history in her award-winning series A History of US.

  • Everyone should own this set

    This is the best history set for all ages (5th grade & up in our house). Readers will learn interesting and important facts left out of traditional history books in public schools. This set should be on shelves, end tables, and backpacks in every state. Clearly written, challenging thinking moments, links to dates presented in a story book flow, all make this a "I forget I am learning" hour of reading. Can read aloud as bonus!
