Introducing the American History Unfolded Book Series
Real People. Real Events. Remarkable Stories.
We're excited to announce the launch of the American History Unfolded Graphic Novel and Activity Book Series, a brand-new collection of paperback books from The Homestead Homeschool, written by educator, author, and homeschool curriculum creator Tara Dodrill!
History shouldn't be just a collection of dates, names, and facts to memorize. It should be an adventure filled with fascinating people, difficult decisions, unexpected discoveries, and stories that leave young readers wanting to know what happens next.
That's exactly what inspired the American History Unfolded series!
Created especially for upper elementary and middle school learners, these books combine colorful graphic-novel storytelling with historical learning, critical-thinking questions, and engaging hands-on activities. Children don't just read about American history. They investigate it, explore it, and discover how ordinary people helped shape extraordinary events.
