Used Books Sold: 0
The young schoolmaster Noah Webster had a problem—his pupils had no books that were written by Americans for Americans. The textbooks all came from England. He had always loved words; maybe this was his chance to help the new country and his pupils also! What resulted in 1782 was to become the best-selling textbook ever, the Blue-Backed Speller. But that is not all! Noah Webster’s life will show your child the Christian influence on our country, inspire him to grow in character, and help him develop a love for language. A glossary makes it easy for your child to look up unfamiliar terms as he reads, acquainting him with early American culture and setting a pattern for building his vocabulary. Biographical novel written by Elaine Cunningham.
