The Big Burn

10.0 (1 Ratings)
Book Rating
[The Big Burn] by [Jeanette Ingold] is an excellently written historical fiction that deals with an interesting topic. The plot is focused around three young people: Elizabeth, a homesteader with her sister, Jarret, a fire fighter, and Seth, and African American soldier. The even that brings them all together is the forest fires of 1910 in Idaho and Montana know as the Big Burn.

[Ingold] tells a fast moving tale through the various perspectives of those involved. The fact that she chose very different characters but remained historically accurate says a lot about the skill of the author. This book is a welcome addition to any classroom library, especially for those reluctant readers.

Landforms by Mary Lindeen is an easy to read book for young readers in the Earth Science series. This book teaches the reader about the science of landforms, and their shapes.  It has beautiful color photographs that help the reader to better understand mountains, hills, plateaus, etc. The book will help young readers learn about geography in a fun way in which they will understand. The vocabulary used in the word list is simple and perfect for young readers. 

I would love to add this book to my classroom library. 

I give this book 4.5/5 stars. 

I received this book from Norwood House Press via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
