Thousands of years--way before Christopher Columbus set sail--wandering tribes of hunters made their way from Asia across the Bering land bridge to North America. They didn't know it, but they had discovered a New World. The First Americans is a fascinating re-creation of pre-Columbian Native American life, and it's an adventure of a lifetime! Hunt seals with the Inuit; harvest corn on a cliff-top mesa; hunt the mighty buffalo; and set sail with Leif Erickson, Columbus, and all the early great explorers--Cabot, Balboa, Ponce de Leon, Cortes, Henry the Navigator, and more--in this brilliantly told story of America before it was America.

This is the first book in a set of 10 that rocks! My 10 year old read this like he eats a cheese pizza after football: he devours the pages. He reads more than the daily requirement for our school day because Joy Hakim writes beautifully. Luring a reader into the history of our nation, you turn each page wondering what happened next. What great books for anyone, any age to read for education or pleasure. Teaching is tough enough and finding a book that kids want to read is worth it's weight in gold!
