"Educational Children's Book (ages 9-12)
Explains the reasons surrounding the War of 1812, describes the significant events before and after the burning of Washington, D.C., profiles Dolley and James Madison, and includes a short fictitious story of a slave girl caught in the war.
This book contains archival drawings, maps, and colored paintings. It also includes bolded vocabulary words with a glossary and an index. Children will be able to identify with the young, main character and learn about an important event in American history at the same time.
"Washington is Burning! The War of 1812" would be an excellent book for children to read and share during Black History Month.
