Inside this narrative non-fiction book for kids, children ages 8 and up will discover the history of the home of the Liberty Bell, The Quaker City, The Birthplace of America: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania!
Young readers will learn the history of the land that is now Philadelphia and the many changes it has undergone, including becoming the first capital and colonial center of the United States, its association with the Lenape Native American tribe, how it got its nickname "The City of Brotherly Love", the role Philadelphia played as the last stop on the Underground Railroad, and how Black Americans played a big role in its population growth.
Fueled by immigrant dreams that laid the groundwork for dozens of distinct and unique areas, Philadelphia is many things to many people: a "city of neighborhoods"; a living museum of colonial architecture and artifacts; a dynamic canvas for art and music; and a mecca for sports fans. Waves of Italian, Irish, Dutch, German, and African Americans have made way for new arrivals from Asia and Latin America. Together, they keep Philly pride as solid and inspiring today as the Rocky statue at the Philadelphia Museum of Art!
Learn about things to do when you travel to Philadelphia, from exploring Independence Hall and grabbing a delicious cheesesteak at Geno's Steaks to riding on electric trolley and attending The Mummers Parade!
This children's history book also features maps of the land and city, both historical photos and current pictures of Philadelphia, a chronology of events from 1638 to now, suggested reading for further research, and a helpful glossary and index.
