Welcome to: A Book or Two: Children's Literature Reviews, a blog site that offers information on new, classic, and favorite children's literature, reviewed by university professors, classroom teachers, librarians, and those studying to become teachers. We hope you will find "just the right book" to share with others. Our goal is to keep the site updated with information about children's authors, book awards, and new releases. Each entry will include the book cover picture, a brief overview, bibliographic information, and suggested uses for families, librarians, and teachers. We will categorize books in several different ways, to facilitate searching.

The Declaration of Independence

AUTHOR: Elanie Landau
PUBLISHER: Children's Press              PUBLICATION DATE: 2008
GENRE: Historic Fiction                    READING LEVEL: Grade 1-4
BRIEF OVERVIEW: Ideal for today's young investigative reader, each A True Book includes lively sidebars, a glossary and index, plus a comprehensive "To Find Out More" section listing books, organizations, and Internet sites.
INTEGRATED ACTIVITY: I would have my student’s imagine they were around during 1776 and could help write the declaration of independence. I would divide them into groups and have them draft up their own and present it to the class in small groups.
