(4) K-3 On My Own History series. Illustrated by Jeni Reeves. The surrender of General Lee to General Grant is told through the eyes of eleven-year-old Willie McLean--in whose Virginia house the surrender papers were signed. This easy-to-read fictionalized account is supplemented with historical information in the author's note and afterword. The illustrations do little to enhance the lackluster text. Bib.
