World War II: An Interactive History Adventure (You Choose: History)

audiobook World War II: An Interactive History Adventure (You Choose: History) by Elizabeth Raum in History

Description

From the most respected chronicler of the early days of the Republic—and winner of both the Pulitzer and Bancroft prizes—comes a landmark work that rescues Benjamin Franklin from a mythology that has blinded generations of Americans to the man he really was and makes sense of aspects of his life and career that would have otherwise remained mysterious. In place of the genial polymath; self-improver; and quintessential American; Gordon S. Wood reveals a figure much more ambiguous and complex—and much more interesting. Charting the passage of Franklin’s life and reputation from relative popular indifference (his death; while the occasion for mass mourning in France; was widely ignored in America) to posthumous glory; The Americanization of Benjamin Franklin sheds invaluable light on the emergence of our country’s idea of itself.

He can actually quote lines from the book. It's provided great conversation for us; and he asks lots of questions about the war. Just advanced notice... the reader is a character in the book (soldier; doctor; pilot; etc); and several of the scenarios that the reader chooses will end up with their character dead. It is definitely an accurate portrayal of what could happen during WWII. It was certainly fabulous to see a third grader so into a historical book that he couldn't put it down!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Children's BooksBy Jim DuffyI have sent many of these interactive children's books to my grandson and he has enjoyed each one of them. The interactive keeps him involved in the story because each time you or he reads the book it changes because of the choices the the child makes at different stages throught the story.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
