The Dog Ate My Homework: Poems

Sara Holbrook

On Friday evening, April 14, 1865, less than a week after the surrender of Confederate forces, John Wilkes Booth crept into Ford's Theatre and murdered Abraham Lincoln. Though it happened nearly 150 years ago, no one has been sure why it happened. In this riveting book, Harold Holzer, one of the country's leading authorities on Lincoln, sweeps away the fog of history to answer the questions surrounding Lincoln's assassination. He shows the conditions of the time that led to the tragic event at Ford's Theatre, and why those who hated Lincoln, such as John Wilkes Booth, sought such horrifying revenge. Filled with dramatic detail and illustrated with archival photographs, this book is bound to be considered an essential work for young readers.

Searchin' Safari

You are invited to come along on a fantastic safari to search for visual sightings of some of the world's wildest animals. All you need is a good imagination and a sharp eye. Each of these animals will be using what is called “protective coloration.” That’s the natural camouflage ability of their bodies to blend in with their surrounding environment. These animals may be hard to spot at first, but if you concentrate and remain very quiet, you should be able to see them.
