Corn

By Lisa Trumbauer

This is an early reader book, with about three sentences per page. Vocabulary words are bold, and a glossary defines those words at the back of the book. The content is accurate, and the book tells the story well for an early reader. The text deals with corn's origins but is not quite accurate here. It states that corn grew wild, and Native Americans learned how to use it. This is not the case. Corn was developed by humans from its wild ancestors. That is the only technical inaccuracy and is a relatively minor one.
