US A HISTORY OF US

“The liveliest, most realistic, most well-received American history series ever written for children.”—Los Angeles Times

“Joy Hakim didn’t rewrite history. But she did make it a whole lot more fun to read.”—Education Week

Whether it’s standing on the podium in Seneca Falls with the Suffragettes or riding on the first subway car beneath New York City in 1907, the books in Joy Hakim’s A History of US series weave together exciting stories that bring American history to life.

The most recent volume in the series, All the People, has been brought fully up-to-date with

a clear and animated description covering, for the first time, the 2008 election of Barack Obama and the financial crisis.

Readers will never think of American history as boring again. Joy Hakim’s single, clear voice offers continuity and narrative drama as she shares with a young audience her love of and fascination with the people of the past.

“Excellent.”—Booklist

The definitive primary source collection for schoolsTextbooks may interpret history, but these books are history. Each title, compiled and edited by a prominent historian, is a collection of primary sources relating to a particular topic of historical significance. Documentary evidence-news articles, government documents, advertisements, memoirs, letters, diaries, fiction, photographs, posters, and political cartoons-allows history to speak for itself and turns every reader into a historian.
