World History > Industrial Age > American History > Westward Expansion
As a struggling farmer on the East Coast of America, you've heard that there are fortunes to be made out West. But first you have to get there-are you tough enough to survive months on the trail, with little to eat and only your wagon for shelter?
This interactive series will enthrall young and reluctant readers (Ages 8-12) by making them part of the story, inviting them to become the main character. Each book uses humorous illustrations to depict the sometimes dark and horrific side of life during important eras in history.
