Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

Frontier Fort: Life on the Upper Mississippi, 1826
In this book readers will follow the daily life of a family living at Fort Snelling in the 1820's. The information focuses on ten-year old Henry Snelling, son of the post commander. Sidebars provide additional information and activities. This will be useful for a Minnesota history unit.
