Reviews
History can take many paths and these entries in the You Choose: History series prove just that. After a brief introduction to the time period, the books use a “Choose Your Own Adventure”–style format that follows three fictional young people through historical ups and downs—including, sometimes, death. Complemented by archival photographs and reproductions, the brisk text highlights key events, people, and places. Whether to leave race riots, become a writer, or explore nightlife, three African Americans head to Harlem in The Harlem Renaissance and discover flourishing arts, music, literature, and pride. Each title concludes with a chapter about the time period’s legacy and extensive back matter to encourage further exploration. Grades 3-6. --Angela Leeper
