Summary
"Thousands of years before Europeans reached the shores of the Americas, the ancestors of the Americas' native peoples arrived. These early people gave rise to great civilizations with a remarkable list of achievements. These accomplishments range from the birchbark canoe to the first organized game in the history of sports to agricultural innovations that produced foods that remain favorites today. This engrossing volume will fascinate readers as they discover the achievements of the ancient Americans. Thoroughly researched text highlights important social studies concepts, while vibrant images bring the text to life. Photo captions, fact boxes, sidebars, and graphic organizers enrich the main concepts"--, Provided by publisher
