The Salem Witch Trials: An Unsolved Mystery from History

32 pp. | Simon | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-84620-7 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Roger Roth. Children are encouraged to use their own reasoning powers to interpret the Salem witch trials of 1692. Each page includes historic information, the young detective-narrator's "notes" about the events, and important vocabulary words. The subdued palette of the illustrations reinforces the mystery's somber tone, and the careful detailing supports the book's interest in historical fact. Websites. Bib.
