| Synopsis | Join Willi, a jaunty little dog, on an adventure-filled journey from Jamestown where the first permanent English settlement took root, to Yorktown where a new nation was born. Virginia's Historic Triangle is a region that encompasses Jamestown, Williamsburg, and Yorktown; historic sites connected by the Colonial Parkway and made famous by their role in American history. | |||
| Age-appropriate Readership | This book is geared to elementary school-aged children. Younger children will enjoy the photo illustrations and Willi's story of friendship with the wildlife of the region, while older children, with the help of the history notes, can conduct some of their own research about the people and places that Willi encounters.
