Homeschool Freebie of the Day

The Boston Tea Party by Josephine Pollard & H. W. McVikar (PDF ebook) – Well, we are back from our Thanksgiving holiday (thanks for letting us take the break), and we have today, by popular request, a rerun of this wonderful old time picture book telling the story of the Boston Tea Party, which occurred in December of 1773, exactly 236 years ago! Yes, it is an old OLD book, originally published in 1812, but don’t let that fool you. This is a hugely enjoyable historical romp back to the events surrounding that milestone event in colonial America. Beautiful, witty illustrations and text in verse make this an absolutely delightful picture book your kids will truly enjoy – and learn a lot of history from, too!
