George Washington's Teeth Worksheets

by Deborah Chandra and Madeleine Comora

Lexile 720L · ATOS 3.6

The Revolutionary War has begun, but George Washington is fighting another battle, too: with his teeth. From New York to the icy Delaware and snowy Valley Forge, one tooth after another comes out, and George tries to keep it secret so his men will not laugh. By the day the votes come in and he becomes President, he has only two teeth left. A rhyming story based on what really happened, with a timeline at the back drawn from George's own letters and diaries.
