(4) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Childhood of Famous Americans series. Illustrated by Drew Rose. This story tells of young Thomas Jefferson and a friend sneaking out at night to a Native American burial ground. Tom later visits a Native village and learns to respect all people. The text is easy to read but, as usual with this series, there's no documentation to indicate whether it's based on fact. Illustrations verging on cartoonish adequately depict events. Timeline.
