Take a trip through the U.S. with these cheerful texts that highlight the appealing and special qualities of each state. The books mix short chapters of straightforward, informative text with bright, busy pages of special features throughout the volume as well as in the back matter. Oklahoma weaves together aspects of the state's history throughout the book, including the strong Native American presence in Oklahoma. Each book's chapters focus on the state's (or district's) land and wildlife, government at various levels, history, and notable cultural institutions. Native peoples are mentioned in the history section although often only in passing. Large captioned photographs of key locations and people illustrate nearly every page. Each book also includes a variety of graphic features, from maps to a time line, a population graph, and a diagram showing the state's electoral votes. These books in the True Book: My United States series are ideal for beginning research or just learning more about the country.
