Named a 2014 BEA Comic Buzz Book by School Library Journal and Comic Book Resources This collection of stories about early New England will appeal to kids of all ages. These fascinating stories concern both well-known and little-known New Englanders, including settlers, slaves and Native Americans. We meet everyone from Anne Hutchinson to Yankee whalers. These engaging tales are beautifully illustrated and grounded in the latest scholarship. Highly recommended for kids of all ages! — Dr. Frank Cogliano, Professor of American History, University of Edinburgh Jason Rodriguez has edited a visually attractive book that will encourage young readers to acquire a more meaningful understanding of Colonial America's history by helping make the stories come alive. — Julian L. Lapides, past president, Baltimore Heritage, Inc. This book is smart, surprising, fun and educational. Each story has its own visual and verbal style but all will delight, intrigue, and enlighten both novice and expert alike. — James David Moran, Director of Outreach, American Antiquarian Society Rodriguez manages a good balance throughout – from wordless tales to text-heavy historical factoids. From almost comic lighthearted illustrations to woodblock type carvings and beautiful pastel watercolors [...] The stories are interesting enough to read for enjoyment value; but of course, the historical value cannot be understated. Since these are stories that rarely have been told outside of academic circles, there isn't any repetition of typical historical discussions about the founding of the colonies. Each story should be quite new to the reader. As well, the length of the stories make this a great book to use as a reading assignment. – Online Eccentric Librarian blog A beautiful anthology of colonial historical vignettes [...] the book is best suited for middle graders to high school and the book's website is making educator guides for the stories. However, the material is perfectly satisfying to the adult reader and the art is varied and showcases a variety of styles. I found it quite impressive and highly readable. – It's All Comics To Me blog I was blown away. The stories are presented in varying styles, but always with the emphasis on the storytelling. Each story was crafted out of a surprising amount of information, but never felt, forgive the term, educational." Sure, I learned a lot from reading the book, but it was presented in such an aesthetically pleasing way that it didn't feel like I was being tricked into learning, the way so many educational comics do. – Brian Salvatore, Multiversity Comics, Named a 2014 BEA Comic Buzz Book by School Library Journal and Comic Book Resources This collection of stories about early New England will appeal to kids of all ages.

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!
