A Teacher's
Guide to Seans's War is available along
with special discounts for school orders.
Told from the point of
view of a twelve-year-old settler boy, Sean's War explores the
dynamics of a family caught in the strife and turmoil of the Black
Hawk War of the 1830s.
History will come to life as children read about Sean's experiences
B his work in the lead mines, his witnessing of the battle at
Stillman's Run, and his participation in the defense of the Apple
River fort. Young readers will be drawn into Sean's conflicts
as he tries to sort our moral issues that are still relevant in
today's world.
"Sean's War is a terrific
read! [It is] a historically accurate and exciting story,"
says Dick Harmet, former editorial director of The World Book
Encyclopedia.
