Here is the thrilling account of Paul Revere’s midnight ride to warn colonists in the towns of Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts, that the British were coming. Brief narrative text and poems written from the point of view of ordinary people who took part in this historic event make this a unique picture book. Readers will meet:
the stable boy who raced to Paul Revere to deliver the news that the British soldiers were ready to march
a woman who told British soldiers pounding on her door that she was merely preparing a cup of tea for her husband, when in fact they were melting pewter spoons into bullets
an enslaved man who was woken in the middle of the night to alert the Lincoln blacksmith that the British soldiers were marching
and many more, including one poem in the voice of Paul Revere himself
When Paul Revere Rode is a lyrical nonfiction deep dive into a critical turning point in US history. Sarah L. Thomson’s engaging verse and Nik Henderson’s dynamic illustrations will sweep young readers ages 5–10 off on the dramatic horseback journey that kickstarted the American Revolution.
