http://www.abookintime.com/

	CONTENT: A Book in Time was written by teacher Carol Henderson for other teachers. It is a resource to help history teachers find all kinds of extracurricular resources to enrich their classes including crafts, timelines, maps and more.
	SITE DESIGN: The site has a handy left side menu with links categorized into four main areas: American History, World History, Activities and Crafts, and Planning Help.
	REVIEW: A Book In Time is a one stop source for history teachers and home-school parents to find corresponding reading, crafts, timelines, maps, and other projects for whatever period of time they are teaching. The site lists reviewed books that will enhance the understanding of important eras, people and events in a typical history curriculum. These booklists are grouped into time periods and cover both American (pre-1600, 1600’s, 1700’s, 1800-1860, 1860-1900, 1900’s) and World History (Ancient World, Middle Ages, Age of Discovery, 1700-Present, and World Wars). Each title includes a brief synopsis of its content, a suggested grade level, and is linked to a site for purchase. Additionally, visitors to the site will find links, which are also categorized into time periods for American and World History, to craft ideas, interactive history sites, maps, timelines, and history textbooks. The site is a work in progress and the best way to keep up with the latest additions is to subscribe to its newsletter.
