to the start of the American Revolution. Careful to keep their distance as
gunfire resounds around them, the trio meets Simon, a young colonialist who
explains where they are and what they are witnessing. As British forces push
deeper into Massachusetts, the militiamen hold their ground—sending the British
army back to Boston. A glossary, index, and more information are provided at
the end. 32 pgs., paperback. ~Rebecca
Publisher's Description of Team Time Machine Leads the Way at Lexington and Concord (Team Time Machine: American Revolution)
The Team Time Machine kids are going back in time to a famous moment in
American history when American colonists battled the British forces at
Lexington and Concord. As riveted readers tag along, the time-traveling
adventurers witness these Revolutionary War battles and the British
march back to Boston, setting the stage for the revolution that created
the United States. Historical images and fun fact boxes give budding
historians an in-depth understanding of these significant events.
Join six school-aged friends as they discover a time machine
in their school’s library and sneak away on historical adventures. Glimpses of
history are presented in narrative form, encouraging student engagement with
the text. Topics include the Siege at Yorktown, Paul Revere, Lexington and Concord,
the Boston Tea Party,
drafting the Declaration
of Independence, Washington’s crossing of the Delaware,
and the Bill of Rights.
Throughout, there are classical works of art, charts, and maps. These are quick
reads with factoids and explanations of events scattered in. Vocab words are
bolded and then defined in the glossary. The end pages also include additional
information for further research into the topic. ~Rebecca
