Illustrated historical notes enlarge on the social history and describe activities related to the stories, from churning butter to predicting the weather. Young readers are invited to try their hand at these tasks to experience a bit of pioneer life. Review: What An Amazing Look At Our Past... - This book is quite spectacular. The hand drawn artwork (black & white, pencil with amazing shading) is stunningly beautiful. Top notch. My husband's jaw dropped when I told him to open it and have a look. The story revolves around giving readers "a day in the life look" of a typical "Pioneer family" through the seasons, at that time in history. It is an incredibly interesting story and add in the artwork (many times a "map" of the inside of the house/outside/property with little notes that point at each thing a family member in the family might be doing at that particular time. The writing is not hard for a child to understand, and would be an excellent and engaging teaching lesson in how the Pioneers lived. For adults, it's simply an enjoyable read, especially if you grew up "on the farm." In looking back, we weren't too much different than the Pioneers in our daily lives. Highly recommend! Review: Wonderful book for children AND adults! - Yes, it's a children's book. And it's engaging, informative, well-formatted, and with lovely illustrations to boot. It would make a perfect companion piece to Wilder's "Little House" books, especially the first one having to deal with the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Greenwood has done an excellent job of tying in a lot of background information as well as actual history to a basic story about a representative (fictional) pioneer family, their building in the wilderness, and their day-to-day life. The different sections also have a lot of craft / how-to pages for children (and adults!) to try their hands at making some of the pioneer items detailed in the book. If you have children, work with children, have grandchildren - share this book with them. I guarantee you'll all enjoy it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #177,173 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #11 in Children's Canadian History #65 in Children's General Social Science Books #84 in Children's American History of 1800s | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 183 Reviews | ## Images ![A Pioneer Sampler: The Daily Life of a Pioneer Family in 1840 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81x+FsNM4PL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What An Amazing Look At Our Past... *by D***B on June 9, 2021* This book is quite spectacular.

I read the whole book out loud to her and we both enjoyed it greatly. It was filled with information and interesting details. I even learned a few new things and that's saying something because I have loved studying pioneers since I was a girl. The illustrations are handsome and the book is laid out very nicely. The narrative story of the family is done well, it is easily read over a few days time in small sessions. You won't feel overwhelmed by the information here but neither will you feel gypped either. The activities in the book are approachable without being so watered down that you wondered if they really qualified as pioneer study tie ins.
