Category Description for History's Famous Feuds
What a fun way to introduce nonfiction reading to students. There is something interesting about feuds—we want to know more about the conflict and how it was resolved. With each book, readers get stats on each person to get to know some biographical information about each opponent. The stage is set with some contextual information, then each page spread dives a little deeper into the conflict and then resurfaces into resolution. Wonderful, historic photographs are included throughout the text. Each book is equipped with a glossary that can be used for vocabulary for spelling lessons. Further Resources are also available to go deeper into history study. These can make great additional reads for a time era or a biographical study. ~Rebecca
