This is a great book as a text or to just read to your kids-it is mini biographies of famous Americans and is extremely interesting-I have homeschooled 6 of my nine kids and all have used this book for third grade history-I will use it with the last 3 when they "come of age" This is an extra copy I have. All the chapter questions are filled in with pen, pencil or marker, but you could orally ask the questions or have the student answer on separate paper (or wite out)
