Review Quotes:
"No book for kids would be long enough to cover everything that happened in American in the 1800s, but Kelly Milner Halls' 19th Century American History for Kids is a survey text that provides useful context for young students beginning to understand major developments in American history and repercussions still with us today. The book is especially strong where the author includes the viewpoint of enslaved and free Black Americans and the experience of Indigenous people. Teachers will find the book a solid base from which students can further explore their interest in topics of 19th century America." --Mary Cronk Farrell, award-winning author of children's/YA books

Review Quotes:
"It isn't easy to write an engaging book for children that encompasses the major events of an entire century in little more than 100 pages, but Kelly Milner Halls succeeds brilliantly! Each U.S. historical event is covered succinctly yet clearly and objectively. The frequent sidebars offer additional stats and facts, which I think kids will really enjoy. I'm a history buff and I learned a ton. To help spark classroom discussion, teachers and librarians will appreciate the coverage of the Trail of Tears, The Indian Removal Act, Dred Scott, and Plessy v. Ferguson and 'the one drop rule.' A glossary and further reading are included, too. Every classroom needs a copy of this book!" --Trudi Strain Trueit, author of Explorer Academy series

Review Quotes:
"This is a great little history book. Concise and just the right length to spark an interest in American history. I especially like the cameo biographies interspersed throughout the book, as they take the reader even further into the lives of real people in history. My hope is that kids will take it further and read everything they can about these people and form their own opinions, read between the lines, and maybe even be inspired to be as strong and courageous as some of the people they read about in this book. This is one book that belongs in all libraries." --Jeannie S. Chambers, author
