Thanks, Joseph! If you haven't already seen them, take a look at my recent series of posts about books kids can make to write about the differences and similarities between contemporary and colonial children. The series starts here and continues here and here.

Thank you for your diligence. This is the best site I have found on the subject. Great for kids, too.

Thanks for your kind words, Sheila. I’m intrigued–can you tell me what you’ve been doing with 1st graders and how you included hornbooks?

Happy New Year!
