Just to think what Nathan Hale could have/would have accomplished if his life wasn't cut so short.

Another great historical read from the Capstone Press Graphic Library series. This installment is about American Revolutionary War hero Nathan Hale. A school teacher turned soldier in the time of the American Revolution, Hale served in General George Washington's army against the British. The graphic novel bearing Hale's name talks a little about his early life, his time as a ranger and then his short life as a spy. This is a great read for elementary aged students to not only get into the history of the American Revolution, but also serve as a supplemental read for the Hazardous Tales graphic novel series (historical fiction) that go a little more in depth about Hale. The end of the book features a glossary of terms and a few bullet point facts for the reader to review. Artwork is great and there is an available AR quiz.
