Summary
Take readers on a journey to the great state of Michigan. Students learn that it has 40 major rivers and more than 35,000 lakes and ponds. They also learn about the wild, cold land of the past and the climate of today. They'll take a look at Native Americans who lived on the land, the Europeans who explored and settled there, and Michigan's entry into the Union. Readers will examine the workings of the state's government and the changes in the economy over the years. Some of the notable people from Michigan include Chief Okemos, William Kellogg, Henry Ford, Diana Ross, Francis Ford Coppola, and Serena Williams.
