by Marissa Moss

This account written for children is &“a very fine piece of historical reclamation that broadens our understanding of the road to revolution.&” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) America&’s Tea Parties: Not One But Four! is the first nonfiction picture book to ever share that New York, Philadelphia, and Charleston each had their own tea party that took place around the same time as Boston&’s.

This well-researched, eye-catching, entertaining, and informative volume is filled with archival illustrations and is great for primary research and as a read-aloud. It will surprise social studies classrooms, shake up US history curriculum, and delight American studies fans as New York, Boston, and Charleston finally join Boston in tea party fame.

The historical accounts are expertly told, and readers will be easily drawn in... A great purchase for supplementing American Revolution curriculum units.&” —School Library Journal &“A quality resource for educators and students looking for an in-depth perspective of early America&’s tea troubles.&” —School Library Connection
