Pacific States Picture Book List
We finished our homeschool year and our read across America in picture books! What an amazing year of stories. I feel like we met so many interesting people along the way through this collection of books.
Without a doubt the most fascinating tale in this region was the story of the Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse in the book, Galloping Gertie. I remember seeing footage of the bridge failure in high school and we watched this one minute video multiple times.
Let us know if you pick up one of these titles and what you think of it!
