Weeks ago, we finished reading [b:Mr. Revere and I: Being an Account of certain Episodes in the Career of Paul Revere, Esq. as Revealed by his Horse 198784 Mr. Revere and I Being an Account of certain Episodes in the Career of Paul Revere, Esq. as Revealed by his Horse Robert Lawson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1441824322l/198784.SX50.jpg 192296] and started out to read the Paul Revere chapter in Notgrass History's Our Star-Spangled Story and reread the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's Paul Revere's Ride illustrated poem. But then, allergies. This morning was the day! Originally, I bought this book, [b:The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere 782095 The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere Henry Wadsworth Longfellow https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1348462991l/782095.SX50.jpg 768111], when I actually intended to buy another book, [b:Paul Revere's Ride 548774 Paul Revere's Ride Henry Wadsworth Longfellow https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1480119102l/548774.SX50.jpg 768111], from the recommendation of Memoria Press Second Grade Classical Core Curriculum. However, I'm delighted with the mistake and being able to compare the two containing the same Longfellow classic poem. The woodcuts and overlays are gorgeous and creative and this book is a treasure to look through.
