My Way West tells the story of real kids that traveled the trails across the west. The children told the stories and through their quotes and paragraphs about how folks decided to move west—the journey across the Oregon trails, California Trails, and Momon trails.

The kids told these journeys on the trails through the images and how life was on the trails. Children will be able to learn about the life and history of the US and the Oregon trails. This book shows tragedy and how everyone came together and helped each other along the way. Children can learn about this and American history by reading this book, not of it but a good glimpse of it.

I enjoy learning about the western expansion and the Oregon trails. I am one of those kinds of readers. I was learning about history through books and how life may have been back then—the dangers of it. When reading this book, I read the quotes first and then the information on the page. Tough, you can read it by doing the significant info about the journey or the topic that was talked about and then the quotes after. It doe not really make a difference in what way you read it. I enjoy that. There is no right way to read this book.

I like the focus was on the actual kids that traveled the Organ and California Trails. The author does a beautiful job of that. This book is suitable for middle-grade readers who want to learn about American history. This book would be an excellent book to have in classrooms as well.

For those LONG car rides.
I downloaded this app when our family if five was making a trip from our home in Tampa, FL to Myrtle Beach, SC. We have three kids very close in age so I downloaded a book to see if they would actually listen and not fight the entire ride. They loved it. Hardly a peep out of them the whole ride. Now they ask to listen to a book any time we are in the car for a while.

Movie Rating Watch
The film was the follow up to the first guardians of the galaxy, it kept with the storyline pretty well and continued where the first one left off. (0 more)
It felt like some areas of the film were very forced like the romance between the characters. (0 more)
Lots of laughs
While it did have some bumps here in there the film was an overall hit with the kids and the adults who viewed it. It was full of one line punches that rolled seamlessly through the scenes.

Beautiful music
Her best yet
While I've like many Adele songs in the past, I've never really liked enough of them on one albumn to buy it until now. This one doesn't have a bad one on it. Her music is beautiful and haunting and fun all at the same time. Best part for me though is that this is music that both the kids and I like so we can all enjoy listening together. Not all artists can cross generations like she can.
