Review: I received this book as a Christmas gift from a co-worker. I teach fourth grade and we study Indiana History, so this is an awesome and appropriate book. The wording Mrs. Reynolds uses, and the illustrations from Mr. Langton, hook the students in and keep them interested until the very end. The facts and information on the sidebar of each page is an excellent way to tie everything in together. I read it to my students immediately upon receiving it, and they have already made references to it just in the short time since I've had it. It is a perfect gift for any teacher (especially one who teaches fourth grade) or for any Hoosier. I would recommend this book to anyone!

Review: I was very excited when I purchased this book. I thought it was a great idea to teach children about the state. However, I do not feel that the author spent anytime researching the state of Indiana. Also, there is not any racial diversity in this book. If one was to look at this book, they would think Indiana only has caucasion americans living in the state.

Review: We lived in Indiana for a year with our small children and we have tried to remind them of all the fun things we did and learned while we lived there. This book is adorable. It covers all the highlights of Indiana. My boys LOVE reading and remembering our year as temporary Hoosiers.
