My son and I would like to thank you for recommending The Matchlock Gun. I checked it out of the library and he would not let me put it down. He was fascinated with both the gun and the Indians. I reserved Cowboy Small and am looking forward to the day it arrives at the library. Can you please recommend a few more stories for our 4-year old boy and 2-year old girl? Brian
Here are a few suggestions.
Ox Cart Man by Donald Hall
The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare
The Story of Rolf and the Viking Bow by Allen French
Escape from Warsaw by Ian Serraillier
Gentle Ben by Walt Morey
all the Billy and Blaze books
biographies of Jedidiah Smith, Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, Lewis and Clark
His Indian Brother
The Indians Knew
Thank you so much Laurie. I just looked at those books and I must admit, I am excited to read them. We will be ordering Hand That Rocks the Cradle to get more great book suggestions.
Linda those book suggestions look excellent too. I will definitely be checking those out to read to Nolan and Landry.
God bless you both for your guidance.
Thank you.
