What Was the Lewis and Clark Expedition?

My third graders love this series of books. Several of them even keep lists so they can check them off as they read them. They’re highly engaging for kiddos who are fans of nonfiction. The pictures give extra info to go along with the text. Timelines in the back of the book make it easy for readers to keep track of events in the books. Perfect for avid and reluctant readers alike!

What Was the Lewis and Clark Expedition? is a terrific book for young readers. This book tells the story of Lewis and Clark's expedition across America. This text is simple for young children to read and understand, while helping to peak an interest in exploration. This is a wonderful book for early readers and it offers a lighthearted view of American history.

This book is a great way to introduce Americas founding fathers who helped shape this nation. All children should know about these heroes. This book is more in detail and expands upon some the challenges Lewis and Clark faced, but this book highlights the many important aspects that Sacagawea helped to ensure the success of the expedition. At times in the book i thought I was reading about her role, which she played an instrumental part. This is a worthwhile book to have to read to your children especially if you want to teach them American history

This series of books is good for dementia patients. They are interesting but easy to read and short.

This book is great, but in one sentence it mentions briefly suicide and murder. I don’t know about you, but suicide is not a word I want my daughter learning about and pondering at age 10. I just scratched the sentence out before I gave it to her. I used to blindly give these Who/What series to my 10yo daughter after I read two or three in the series and approved of them of being very unbiased and kid friendly, but after spot reviewing the Donner Party book that actually mentions eating children and cannabalism many times I’ve been reviewing these first before I give them to her or just scratch out things inappropriate for kids. Hope you found this review helpful.

Very good book for children to learn more about our American history. Most importantly for those of us who live in Missouri. Great explanations and “side bars” to give insights. I recommend this purchase.

It’s great to read it refresh your memory and then you can give it to the kids your grandchildren they enjoy it very much.

My grandson aged 8 lived this book to learn about his distant relative.
