[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been reading some great picture book bios lately, Star Stuff (about Carl Sagan), one about e. e. cummings (forgot the title), and Henry's Freedom Box (about Henry Brown and the [b]underground railroad[/b].) These books deal with some heady stuff (def. not for preschoolers) but I feel like the pictures really help make the [b]history come alive[/b].[/quote] Just as an FYI, they do Underground RR hikes through the county on Saturdays. Unfortunately tomorrow's is cancelled due to impending weather: http://www.montgomeryparks.org/PPSD/Cultural_Resources_Stewardship/heritage/urr_experience.shtm This farm also recreates history of the underground RR and slavery: http://buttonfarm.org [/quote] oh fantastic! we will be checking both of these out, for sure. I'm amazed I had never heard of Button Farm before (I'm in Nova, but still.)[/quote]
