If you're looking for a way to make American history stories more interesting for those who may not have a natural love for it, you should definitely consider this fun series. Now available as a downloadable PDF for any device that has Acrobat Reader capabilities. It's about a water molecule named Munford who travels all over the country in various forms, and is present during some of the nation's greatest moments. Part of the fun of the book is seeing how Munford gets around; he catches rides on people, gets splashed from puddles, hangs out in water jugs, etc, making his way where he needs to go. Then he gets to see cool moments in history first-hand! He witnesses the Lewis and Clark expedition from Clark's canteen; experiences the Klondike gold rush from the boots and clothes of many people; tags along for Paul Revere's ride and helps out at the Boston Tea Party! The stories are fast-paced and fun and are a great way to introduce young kids to history stories. By Jamie Aramini, illustrated, 140 pgs, pb. ~ Rachel
