Children's Literature Briefly Chapter 12

Tunnell, Michael O. and James S. Jacobs. Children's Literature, Briefly. 4e. Upper Saddle River NJ: Prentice Hall, 2008.

I enjoyed reading chapter 12 since I like to history. It was interesting to see that history is processed better when it is told in a good story and it is even better when there are pictures to go along with the story. I agreed with the authors when they stated that text books are less interesting since they teach too much, and not as interesting as trade books. I like trade books since they have one main fictional character with the rest being historic people.
