Faces of Kentucky

[Faces of Kentucky] is appropriate for upper elementary grades but is thorough enough to hold the interest and provide useful information to older students. The authors have the stated goal of presenting the diversity of Kentuckians and recognizing the contributions of those who in the past have been overlooked. They are quite successful in this effort.

~Kentucky Kaleidoscope

Thanks to authors who know their material and how to present it, the book is an interesting blend of facts and thought-provoking questions.

~Lexington Herald-Leader

Faces of Kentucky ... is a dramatic departure from standard, boilerplate fourth grade history textbooks. It will open young students' minds to the complexities and richness of the Commonwealth's past... [and] will set a new standard of excellence for history textbooks around the country.
