Idaho

In the A True Book: My United States series, children learn what makes each of the fifty U.S. states distinctive and exceptional. In Idaho they will travel throughout the state to explore the diverse landscape, from jagged peaks and deep canyons to majestic grasslands and thundering waterfalls and find out what it is like to live there, what people like to eat, what kinds of jobs are common, and the thriving towns and cities throughout the state. They will also learn about Idaho’s history, find out how the state is governed, and see what role it plays in the U.S. economy. A thorough resource section at the end encourages independent study. 48 pages, softcover. Grades 3 – 5.
