This blog was developed as a resource for teachers who are looking to incorporate high quality and award winning trade books into their social studies curriculum.

Texas Days of Glory
Texas Days of Glory
Written by: Pat Boyette
Historical Consultants: William Miller, K.R. Wood
"Large size pictures trace the history of Texas using a comic book format. The book begins with coverage of the arrival and exploration of the first Spanish soldiers, priests, and colonists and continues through the coming of Anglo settlers and the Texas Revolution. The story gained inspiration from the work of K. R. Wood, author and performer of FATHERS OF TEXAS, a compilation of songs and stories about Texas history."
