Basic Skills Caucasian Americans Workbook by Beverly Hope Slapin
The history, material culture, beliefs and aspirations of the people now collectively known as the Caucasian Americans have often been discussed, but rarely comprehended. Until now. The Basic Skills Caucasian Americans Workbook provides young readers with accurate accounts of the lives of the Caucasian Americans, who, long ago, roamed our land. Some were hostile, but many were friendly. Presented Scholastic-style--with delightful illustrations, word scrambles, and other fun exercises--and with chapters such as Caucasian American Languages, Caucasian American Food Production, and Caucasian American Religions, Ceremonies, and Superstitions, this educational workbook illuminates long-lost anthropological knowledge and is a fun read as well.Beverly Hope Slapin, who delighted many young readers with Growing Up Caucasian, I Live in a Gated Community and What's Up, Little White Girl?, has always been fascinated with and delighted by white people. A teacher whose love of white culture led her to intensive Caucasian American studies, which she eagerly shares with her young students, Slapin writes: What would America have been without the Caucasian Americans themselves, with their magnificent shopping malls, their colorful leisure suits, their factories, landfills, and parking lots, their reality shows, their iPods and their history? Slapin, a winner of the coveted Ishibashi Award, previously collaborated with famed illustrator Annie Esposito on What's Up, Little White Girl?, which Bookmark described as beautifully cadenced, sensitive prose.... A fine choice for storytelling to groups or for reading individually, with time to savor the book's strong, quiet appeal.
