Book Review: The True Story of the Battle of Lexington and Concord"This book is a good introduction to the American Revolution for the youngest reader...The "What Really Happened?" approach tweaks the reader's interest by adding the element of mystery to a dry collection of facts. Students are introduced to historical ambiguity as they are told that opinions vary on who fired the first shot at Lexington. Difficult words are in bold type and defined in the glossary. The publisher provides an online list of Web sites on the subject to keep readers current. A useful summary concludes the book...RECOMMENDED."
