Paul Revere and the Bell Ringers

(4) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Childhood of Famous Americans series. Illustrated by Bert Dodson & Bert Dodson. In this entry in a series that fictionalizes a childhood incident that affects the subject's future life, young Paul Revere forms a bell-ringing club that teaches him about rules and responsibility. The fictionalized dialogue is irritating ("Why should our parents have all the fun?"), but the topic of club-forming has perennial appeal and both text and art are simple and clear.
