If You Lived in Colonial Times by Ann Mcgovern.
This book takes a look at the various customs and dress of the Colonial age. This is a good book to use during Thanksgiving to compare the life, customs and dress of the Pilgrims to how we live, our customs, and how we dress today.

The Diary of a Young Girl by Ann Frank.
Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, Anne Frank's remarkable diary is a reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit. In 1942, with Nazis occupying Holland, a thirteen-year-old Jewish girl and her family fled their home in Amsterdam and went into hiding. In her diary Anne Frank recorded vivid impressions of her experiences during this period. By turns thoughtful, moving, and amusing, her account offers a fascinating commentary on human courage and frailty and a compelling self-portrait of a sensitive and spirited young woman whose promise was tragically cut short.
