Lewis & Clark / Nick Bertozzi 136 pgs.
A graphic novel version of the Lewis & Clarks' western expedition that took a small team of explorers from St. Louis to the Pacific ocean and back. Unlike the thin glossy story that you hear in primary grade history courses, the group had many hard times and problems along the way but they also did great work bringing back samples, dealing with natives along the way and surviving! It is hard to believe how tough it was for them and how much they learned about our growing country. Theirs was a special commission by President Jefferson and they fulfilled their mission.
