Famous Figures of the Civil War

Famous Figures of the Civil War
Now children ages six to twelve years old can join the battle for liberty and make movable paper cut-out action figures of courageous men and women of the American Civil War. If you have a child who dreads reading but loves art and drama, the Famous Figures series is the perfect history supplement for him.

Each meticulous Famous Figures of the Civil War illustration is based on authentic paintings and sculptures. Colorful characters are printed on heavy cardstock with perforated pages for trouble-free removal, and a letter key is included on the back of each figure for easy assembly. Cut out the pieces, punch holes where directed, attach some common fasteners, and your Famous Figures of the Civil War are ready to take center stage as your child reenacts momentous events in American history.

If your student is an avid artist, she will be pleased to discover that a colorable version of each figure is also included on the same sturdy cardstock. Fill in each Famous Figure of the Civil War with colors as realistic or exotic as you wish.
