Shoes for Everyone: A Story about Jan Matzeliger… de Barbara Mitchell
Nicely readable, illustrated story of African-American inventor Jan Matzeliger, who designed an important machine for making shoes, thus making them more affordable for virtually all Americans and changing the industry forever (Michelle Howard).
Straight forward biography concentrates on Gershwin's musical education and work.
I enjoyed this book because I grew up on the Chesapeake Bay and it was lovely to see a picture book showing the Bay and Tiighman Island in a post world war 2 setting. It’s always nice to see the places you came from represented in books. My step father was a waterman for a long time when I was a small child, maybe about 5 or 6.

Clever retelling for children of a humorous incident during the War of 1812, in which the inhabitants of Lewes, Delaware outwit the crew of a British ship in their harbor. Their trick leads to an unsuccessful bombardment by the British. Very simple words. Blue-and-white line drawings add to the book's appeal. Based on a true incident. I HAD to read this one, since I grew up in Delaware.
