(4) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Childhood of Famous Americans series. Illustrated by Diane Dawson Hearn. This bland fictionalized anecdote from George Washington's youth shows an eleven-year-old George trying to figure out the best way to convince his mother to let him leave home for a visit with his married brother. Pleasant but unremarkable illustrations follow George throughout his school day as he ponders the issue, finally hitting upon a winning argument. Timeline.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
