America According to Connor Gifford
When I was a child, I never paid attention in History class. I was bored to tears and couldn’t see why in the world I needed to know what some old dead guy did years ago! It had nothing to do with my life and since it was history there was nothing I could do about it anyway!
Connor Gifford “gets” that! He knows that kids are bored in history class and he knows that it is just a matter of putting these kids in the shoes of those in history. This great book puts you right into the moment when history was being made!
AMERICA ACCORDING TO CONNOR GIFFORD has pictures and stories of our great American heritage. Over 400 years, in fact, of American History told in a way that no matter if you are 10 yrs old or 100 yrs old, YOU will appreciate this book!
Author, Victoria Harris helped with this book and with her great writing ability and Connor’s thoughts and pictures, this book is sure to fly off the shelves everywhere!

Now, you may be asking, Kristy…What on earth are you writing about a history book in your MOSAIC MOMENTS blog for? What does this have to do with Down syndrome or mosaic Down syndrome? Have you flipped your lid??
Oh! I forgot to mention….
Connor Gifford has mosaic Down syndrome!! He and Victoria are planning to come to our 09 Research and Awareness Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio! Imagine meeting Connor and getting an autographed copy of his book! I will be the first in line, because I have a lot to learn about history!
