US State Quarters Explained – by Jessica Miller
US State Quarters Explained – by Jessica Miller
There are amazing stories behind the designs for each state. Whose colonial midnight ride is featured on the Delaware quarter? hint.. is NOT Paul Revere. What did Buffalo Bill of Wyoming have to do with women’s equality? What state has produced the most astronauts? What three musical styles came out of Tennessee? Why is Texas called the Lone Star State?
This January I was helping my mother in law with a project of hers sorting US state quarters into sets for each state and I wanted a book that talked about what the designs on each quarter meant. I could not find what I wanted. So I wrote one.
A great easy read book, and a fun gift. There will be a matching National Parks version in time for Christmas
