New Almanac for Kids, Volume 7 Shipping Now
Dear Almanac Companion readers (and kids at heart!),
Life was a lot simpler in 1766, when Almanac founder Robert B. Thomas was born on a farm in Grafton, Massachusetts. Back then, television and telephones, cars and computers didn’t exist.
Whatever did folks do? How did kids—and adults—have fun? Perhaps Robert looked to the sky to find the stars, did a few magic tricks, found bait to go fishing, and wondered how ants knew when rain was coming.
Just like Robert B., Almanac readers like to learn, to figure things out, to explore, to laugh, and to discover. Toward that end, we present our newest book dedicated to him and to kids of ALL ages . . . |
