The American frontier and the pioneers who settled it are emblematic of the American spirit. From east to west, our country brought determined people of all backgrounds together in pursuit of the American dream.
In showing how past generations of Americans shaped the land and how the land shaped them, the tale of Paul Bunyan, “Sarah, Plain and Tall,” and “O Pioneers!” will foster in young readers an appreciation for our country. These books are great to introduce to your children this Fourth of July.
