William Penn, Founder of Pennyslvania


William Penn, Founder of Pennsylvania by Barbara Somerville is readable biography of Pennsylvania's founder. The book contains short chapters about Penn's life. Side bars contain additional information about the times and places in the account. Fascinating tidbits of information keep the history from dragging and paintings and photos add to the book's interest.

There are many biographies on Penn's life but this is one of the best I've found for the elementary student.
