Moving and Grooving

Chester the Crab's Moving and Grooving shows today's students how people got around in the past. It's a race across 400 years of transportation in North America - from Native American footpaths to sailboats on the Potomac River to trains across the Midwest. There's a full chapter on the Wright Brother's pursuit of powered flight and a full chapter on how we got to the Interstate Highway system. Each page has a themed title in the form of a question, so a student can explore one page at a time if he or she chooses. It's full-color fun for visual learners.
