Jerry Silvermans book Singing Our Way West, teaches young children the history of America's westward expansion through thirteen different songs. The book is full of stories and songs about the Eerie Canal, The Alamo, and the Gold Rush. Many children find history boring at times. This book could be a fun way for them learn more about Americas history! The songs are about the many different events that created the first foundations of America. The songs are simple, easy to learn, and tell a story as you sing them. The book is also full of pictures. This would give children a great visual aid! This book would be great for 4th or 5th graders starting to learn Americas history.
