Christopher Columbus (Step-Into-Reading, Step 3)
from Random House Books for Young Readers

Hi!:) This book is nice and informative without being too long and boring. It will most likely appeal to children around 5 or 6 through about 9 or 10. After that, they may want to read another, more in depth biography about this remarkable and fearless sailor and explorer.
The illustrations are... more info

Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus
from Tor
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:

I don't often write reviews. I'm not the best at summarizing plots. All I can tell you is that this book made me feel and think. I finished it in one day and as I got closer to the end I felt more and more desperate, because I didn't want it to end. The characters are all so well-developed and the... more info

Christopher Columbus and the Afrikan Holocaust: Slavery and the Rise of European Capitalism
from A & B Distributors
Price: $8.76

Customer Review:

This is a short book by a black author. He focuses on the Middle Passage or the slave trade and its effects on Europe, capitalism, and the discovery of the New World. What I didn't like about this book is that it has a lot of rage at the white world with many half truths thrown in. Some facts are... more info

Customer Review:

I love this series for my English language learners.

Rethinking Columbus: The Next 500 Years
from Rethinking Schools Ltd
Price: $11.66

Customer Review:

As a history teacher who feels it is my responsibility to teach histories that have been marginalized and to teach truth that has been denied, Rethinking Columbus (and other books put out by Rethinking Schools) is tremendously useful, not only for the practical ideas for lesson plans and activities... more info

from Franklin Watts
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:

I bought two books for Columbus Day for my 5 year old. I really love this one however it is bit advanced for us right now. It has lots of captions and very busy. It's very cute and will be fun to use in a year or two! I am glad I got it but would recommend it for a 6-8 year old. We will definitely... more info

Where Do You Think You're Going, Christopher Columbus?
from Putnam Juvenile
Price: $6.99

Customer Review:

Columbus was a lucky man (blessed, he would say). He had to be. Who else could have so much go so wrong and still become famous for the one big thing he did by mistake: discover America...if he did that. Anyway, he had a lot of adventure (or misadventure), and Jean Fritz tells about it and him--not... more info

The Tainos: Rise and Decline of the People Who Greeted Columbus
from Yale University Press
Price: $12.24

Customer Review:

This book is quite outdated. It still seem to think that Tainos became extinct. After testing the DNA of hundreds of Puerto Ricans, it was discovered that the reports of extinction were highly (very) exagerated. Not a surprise for those of us who knew better. Still there is some information that is... more info
