Acknowledgements

Special thanks to the Baldwin Library of Historical Children’s Literature for supplying the images on the teaching portfolio page.  Extra thanks to the Baldwin curator, Suzan Alteri, and her wonderful interns, Abbie and Kerry, for finding and scanning these images for me. Each image is from one of the historical children’s texts in the Baldwin.
