Publisher's Synopsis
The state of New York might be most famous for the enormous city that shares its name, but there is also a lot going on throughout the rest of the state.
A True Book: My United States series allows readers to experience what makes each of the fifty state distinctive and exceptional. Readers will get to know each states' history, geography, wildlife and future outlook. This series includes an age appropriate (grades 3-5) introduction to curriculum-relevant subjects and a robust resource section that encourages independent study. Readers will explore all of New York, from wilderness and farmland to the streets of Manhattan. Along the way, they'll find out what makes the state tick, from history and government to local culture and more.
