Colonial Life Rainbow

BOOK CHALLENGE:  COLONIAL LIFE RAINBOW
This book challenge will have you reading a rainbow of books about colonial life and Thanksgiving!  Here are ten books that go along with this theme.  To meet the challenge you must read three colonial life books and they each must have a different color.  Here are ten suggested books, but you can read other books on this theme too:


Red:  Thanksgiving by Trudi Strain Trueit (available on Bookflix)
Orange:  Squanto and the First Thanksgiving by Joyce K. Kessel
Orange:  Finding Providence:  The Story of Roger Williams by Avi
Yellow:  Sarah Morton's Day:  A Day in the Life of a Pilgrim Girl by Kate Waters
Yellow:  Samuel Eaton's Day:  A Day in the Life of a Pilgrim Boy by Kate Waters
Green:  'Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving by Dav Pilkey
Green:  10 Fat Turkeys by Tony Johnston
Blue:  Turkey Trouble by Wendi Silvano
Purple:  Thanksgiving on Thursday by Mary Pope Osborne
Purple:  My America:  Our Strange New Land:  Elizabeth's Jamestown Colony Diary by Patricia Hermes

You can read these books at home or in class.  Just remember to put them on your reading log!  Almost all of these books can be found in either the Morris Plains or the Morris County Library and many of them are available in our classroom.  

Use the comments section to make comments, ask questions, or tell us other great colonial life books you've read.
Happy reading,
Miss Kramer
