Summary: Great History Lesson
Comment: I bought "Felicity Learns A Lesson" and really enjoyed it. It is a great way to get young girls interested in history by allowing them to peer into the lives of young girls of that time period.
This book, set in Williamsburg, Virginia in 1774 is great. Felicity is going to school to become a lady. She learns the proper way to serve and drink tea, as well as needle point. She even makes a friend, Elizabeth, but Elizabeth's father is a loyalist and Felicity's father is a patriot.
The last part of the book is a more in depth history lesson about Felicity's time period.
All of the "American Girls" books are great ways to teach and get young girls interested in history.

Summary: Wonderfully entertaining and educational
Comment: This is another one of the American Girls Short Stories series about Felicity Merriman, a nine-year-old girl living in the America of 1774. In this book, Felicity's mother decides that it is time to send Felicity for lessons in being a gentlewoman. At first, she does not wish to learn such things, but as her lessons progress she comes to enjoy all of the little things that she is being taught. However, as the colonist begin to chafe under British rule, Felicity finds her ability maintain politeness tested.
The final chapter is a wonderful look at school in 1774. Indeed, my daughter (eleven-years-old and still an American Girls fan) and I loved this book. I especially liked the way that the author artfully combined the story of the simple life of a young girl, with the happenings of the greater world around her. This is a wonderfully entertaining and educational book, one that my daughter and I both recommend.
