Do you demand some peachy book ideas for studying early modern history?

Well, yous've come to the right place.

Here you'll find a wonderful literature list for early American history and early on modern history. At that place are lots of picture books and even several chapter book choices.

I created this list because nosotros plan to supplement our reading of Story of the Globe Book 3 with lots of library books. But there were a few books that I knew nosotros wouldn't want to miss, so I'chiliad ordering at least 1 book for each affiliate. If we don't brand it to the library ane week, I'll know we have one extra book to enhance our studies. Plus, I wanted to build our dwelling house library with some history books!

It was difficult to narrow downwardly the choices to only 1 or ii per chapter but I did it – ok, some might have 3! (And these books are non necessarily the ones recommended in the activeness guide, although some are.) These are just the books on my purchase list! Almost are picture books that will be read aloud to my 8 and 6 year olds. A few are chapter books for my 8 year one-time to read on her own.
