The story of Arlington National Cemetery, from the time it was open land inherited by George Washington Parke Custiss, step grandson of Geroge Washingtonm to becoming the final resting place of tens of thousands of military men and women and prominent Americans. Fascinating reading & captivating illustrations. A worthy addition to Memorial Day or Veteran's Day reading and study.

Gorgeous illustrations - some liberties taken with rewording St. Francis' words. Still very worthy picture book.

The Lion and the Mouse - lovely wordless (almost) retelling of one of Aesop's fables. Pinkney is an amazing artist.

Eric Carle's Mister Seahorse is such a cute book - add in this great craft (template included on blog) that also includes tying practice and you have a great lesson.

Sesquicentennial of the Pony Express ends this month. Last day of Pony Express - Oct. 26, 1861. A great picture book to capture the adventure of this period of US history.
