What Was the Boston Tea Party?

What Was the Boston Tea Party?

By Kathleen Krull

This is a good book for information about the Boston Tea Party. It all starts off normal, people just living their own lives. When they started putting taxes on tea, people were very angry and upset. A few people dumped crates of tea into the water to show what they think of the taxes. This is why the Boston Tea Party happened. I made a connection with this book because this was a real life tragedy that actually happened a long time ago that shows we can't get what we want, and you shouldn't make things worse. I give this book a 5 star review because it provides many reasons and examples why this event occurred, and how we can prevent this from happening again.

Who Was Abigail Adams?

By True Kelley

The main lesson in the story (Who was Abigail Adams) is that it is talking about a women rights to live in the whit house because even day you don't see as many women that live in the whit house.Also the second main idea is that when it was election time women weren't allowed ti vote because all back when Geroge Washington was around they still don't want women to vote because of the president at the time,On the other hand you sould check this book out at the libary because if you like to learn about ''facts'' and other people then you sould check it out this book,they have diffrent authors for each story and they are only $5!and they are called the ''who was'' seires. they have books about George Washington,Walt Disney.and one unanswered question is that did you like a president husband?

Who Was Clara Barton?

Who Was Clara Barton?

By Stephanie Spinner

Who was Clara Barton is a great book. It was a story of her life from the day she was born to the day she died. It told a lot about how she helped so many people. It told who her parents and siblings were and where she moved to. It also told all of the jobs she had and gave you a look at what people’s life was like back then. Of course, it had some gross spots in it because she was a nurse in the civil war. It also told how Doctor’s did stuff back then.
