The Folks in the Valley: A Pennsylvania Dutch ABC

Rating:
Summary: A pleasant alphabetical trip through farm country.
Review: Better than the usual A-Z teaching tool in that it's a well-written piece of prose--how surprising. Lovely illustrations with an Amish theme. Will please adults as well as the young.

Summary: An understnading of the Dutch with use of the alphabet.
Review: I used the book with my students and they really enjoyed it. They learned about the Pennsylvania Dutch and their life style along with the alphabet. A new word, "row", was introduced and lead to a wonderful dictionary lesson.
