Are You Smarter Than a Kid Who Read Lorraine Strieby's American History Books?

                                                          


                                                             



These are children storybooks that can be used as fun history text books because they are based on fact and at the end of Book 8 there is a study guide referring to these three books.  
I have my own book shelf on Amazon,  huffims.com 

History can be boring to some so I wrote in free verse poetry, (a little like Dr. Seuss)  and the teacher is a little mole, Mayor Molly McMole, leader of her mole tribe, who loves digging up facts about how our colonies became the United States of America and because they are storybooks, something to read to your children as a bedtime story or even an interesting text book, a study guide was added.  All this learning takes place down the mole hole, Underground San Diego, California.  There are colorful illustrations too!

Here are a few children questions in the Hoisting the Flag Study Guide, can you answer them?:


1] What founding father went to France to plead for French war ships from the king to help win the war at Yorktown? And

Was he successful?

2] Who was the bookworm who became a general and built sleds at Fort Ticonderoga to transport cannons that were left behind by the British and transported them to Yorktown over mountainous terrain?

3] Who was Admiral de Grass?

4] Did General Guy Carlton fight for the British or the Americans?

Why is a Spy Called a Mole, two new books by Lorraine Strieby

Image
  I am happy to announce that soon my last two books will be on Amazon/Kindle, about the American Revolution, and book 8 has a study guide for the kiddos and storyteller parents and teachers. You will meet the heroes of the Revolution through the eyes of Mayor Molly McMole and her mole tribe. In book 8 the moles dress up as their favorite Revolution hero celebrating at a masquerade ball in a castle, two miles under the ground, remember these are moles who dig holes and tunnels.                                                                                                     If you want to learn about our Revolution, these books are for you. #americanrevoklution #historybuff #georgewash...

Mayor Molly McMole Is Concerned About US Not Following the US Constitution, Article 4, Section 4, About US Border

Image
  Here I  am in the red coat and  my name is Mayor Molly McMole and I'm featured in a book series written by Lorraine Strieby who hails from Los Angeles now living in the San Diego area.  As you can see I am a mole and since Strieby lives in San Diego I secretly live there too with my Mole Tribe underneath San Diego. I've been around the block several times, hardly anyone sees me because I am a mole.  We moles have been here forever and my ancestor Christopher McMole was a spy for President George Washington. Christopher wrote a diary, now in my possession, so I write about Washington and his tribe which you humans call "forefathers," You can read about McMole and Washington in Lorraine Strieby's children's book,    Why is a Spy Called a Mole. Your tribe seems to have a problem right now with following the US Constitution which your tribe wrote back when you were fighting the British.   My tribe thinks this inspired Constitution, written by y...

I f you have had an experience meeting a crow it is an experience you will not soon forget.  They are as intelligent as a 7 - 10 year old child. They are so intelligent that sometimes they will seek out a human contact and when they bond,  the crow will bring his friend gifts.  Sometimes a rescued crow will even honor h...
