A Career as a Physical Therapist
Introduces the profession of physical therapy, including its history, tools, training programs, and areas of specialization.
The Civil War
The Civil War still holds a prominent place in the American imagination—reenactments and battlefield visits are popular tourist attractions for both Northerners and Southerners. The underlying issues of racism and states’ rights that caused the war are also still visible in American society. Through informative main text, detailed maps, historic photographs, and a timeline of important dates, readers will be engaged by this key event in the country’s history and gain a better understanding of some of its present struggles.
Freedom By Force
When people are routinely and systematically oppressed for years, it is only logical that they eventually rise up against their oppressors. For African slaves in North America, these rebellions were largely unsuccessful. Nevertheless, the anger and uprisings that came from people who wanted their freedom and were willing to fight for it are important parts of the story of the fight to end slavery. Readers get a deeper understanding of crucial slave rebellions throughout history through thoroughly researched text, primary sources, and topical photographs.
Meerkats
Introduces meerkats, describing their physical characteristics, eating habits, and habitat, and how their pack behavior protects them from predators.
Native Americans in Early America
This book tells about the earliest people in North America, the different tribes and their cultures, and the changes brought to Native American culture when European explorers and settlers arrived.
The Black Death
As the COVID-19 pandemic has swept around the globe, people have looked to the past for other examples of deadly disease outbreaks. In the mid-14th century, an outbreak of bubonic plague, or the “Black Death,” killed more than 25 million Europeans within a five-year span. Through informative maps, critical-thinking questions, and in-depth sidebars, readers learn the similarities and the vast differences between the Black Death, the 2020 pandemic, and other disease outbreaks in history. Understanding past pandemics enables readers to keep a level head when evaluating current and future outbreaks, reducing panic and leading to positive, effective solutions.
Hedgehogs in the Dark
Hedgehogs have spines along their bodies that provide protection against enemies—even when they’re sleeping! These small animals have fascinating habits and readers will learn how they spit on their spines and even “talk” to each other. Up-close photographs highlight other unique characteristics of these nocturnal creatures.
Ostriches
Introduces ostriches who live in the grasslands of Africa, describing their physical characteristics, life cycle, feeding habits, and herd behavior.
Cyberbullying and the Law
Each year, the sense of urgency to halt the growth of cyberbullying increases. As more cyberbullying cases and their consequences are brought to national attention, many states are instituting anti-bullying legislation. In addition, many people are calling for stronger legal penalties for bullying behaviors. The role of American law in protecting young people in cyberspace is explained as well as how laws related to bullying are being interpreted in court cases. Teens learn what rights they have, what powers schools possess, and what parts of the law are still in flux. Perhaps most important, they learn how to be activists rather than victims, effectively advocating for themselves and others.
Life in a Colonial City

There were stores, and taverns for eating and socializing. Books of the Real Life Readers Program use real life scenario narratives to help readers further develop content-area reading, writing, and comprehension skills.
