This is a biography about Daniel Boone. I could have students make a time line based on the events in this book. This book gives information about Boone's childhood and his adult life. He was a hunter and explorer. Some places he explored were Florida and Kentucky. The Shawnee were a group of Native Americans who were angry that settlers were moving into their territory. At one point, the leader of the Shawnee adopted Daniel after he was kidnapped. He escaped. though and reunited with his wife. He stayed in Missouri with his family until they died. Informative sentences accompany pictures.
I would do a book pass activity with the students using legends based on Daniel Boone. I would have them fill out a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting literary characteristics of this book with the books used for the book pass.
