From many different walks of life, and many different time periods in US history, these American heroes can inspire kids on to better and greater thing. Politicians, humanitarians, explorers, inventors, civil rights leaders, athletes, entrepreneurs, scientists, military men, artists - the list goes on. Each two-page spread gives a brief history of the individual’s accomplishments, with some ways to explore more about the person and the impact they had. A good place for starting research projects, and a great way to become excited about the people who have called this country home. ~ Zach
