Dear Colleagues,
Happy New Year! Hope you are doing well.
Our third grade faculty has a unit on the Age of Exploration, and I am
searching for biographies that are kid-friendly on Magellan, Cortes, Cabot,
Cartier, Ponce de Leon and Hudson. If you have any other useful
biographies in your collection that you can recommend to me, I would
greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for any suggestions targeted for 3rd grade,
