Our 50 United States and Other U.S. Lands Did you know that the Hawaiian Islands are actually the tops of volcanoes sticking out of the ocean? Or that Connecticut passed the first automobiles laws setting the speed limit at 12 miles per hour? From the birth of our nation to the last territory to be admitted to the Union, young readers will be introduced to the wide array of native peoples populating the continent and the explorers who helped open the way to westward expansion of the growing USA. Each page highlights a state (in the order in which states joined the Union) with information on its native peoples and cultures, as well as its history and industries. Sidebars provide interesting and entertaining facts for curious kids. United States territories and commonwealths (Puerto Rico and Guam) are included, as is the District of Columbia. Illustrated with historical and contemporary photographs, drawings, and maps. Hardcover, 72 pages, ages 7-11 years.
