T is for Tarheel: A North Carolina Alphabet

T is for Tarheel: A North Carolina Alphabet
By: Carol Crane
Nonfiction



This book is an alphabet book of different things in North Carolina, starting with the Appalachian Mountains for A, and ending with Zoom—Zoom—Zoom (because NC is the home of NASCAR) for Z. Each page hosts a letter and something that represents North Carolina for that letter. On the sides of the pages there is a few paragraphs describing in more detail the facts about that particular item.

T is for Tarheel would be a good introduction in which to present a project in which they have to create their own alphabet book of North Carolina. For this project, they would have to find something for each letter of the alphabet that represents NC. Then they would also have to make an illustration for each letter and write a few sentences about what they chose for each letter.
