Jack and Annie's research guide to the American Revolution is a companion book to Revolutionary War on Wednesday. In this non-fiction book, children will learn about the causes of the war, weaponry, the Declaration of Independence, and the major figures of the revolution, and the end of the war.

I can't stress enough how valuable these non-fiction books are for a 1st - 5th grade student. How much non-fiction is in the hands of our kids? How much of that is interesting and features two admirable characters (Jack and Annie) from their most loved books? If your kids are hooked on The Magic Tree House, spend the extra $ and pick up a few of the research guides because it opens a door to non-fiction in an age appropriate manner. ( )

This is a great companion the the fiction book Revolutionary War on Wednesday by the same author. This is at a reading level I feel comfortable that all my students could read independently. Possibly used to tie in Literacy with the social studies study.
