The wide-open spaces of Oklahoma are brought alive for readers with charming rhymes about rodeos, land runs, and yes, even the musical "Oklahoma " The people, places, and landmarks of the Sooner state are thoroughly explored through the popular two-tiered format for the Discover America State by State series, with simple rhymes for younger children and expository text for older children.
This book is an excellent way to learn a bit of Oklahoma history as well as instilling the alphabet. I dofeel it is for older children-but who ever grows up!!!

This book makes me beam with pride to be an Oklahoman! It is filled with relevant facts from what a sooner really is, the oklahoma city bombing, sooner and cowboy football, famous Oklahomans and much more. It I have bought several copies as gifts. It also has trivia questions in the back that follow along with the book; it would make a great educational tool. I highly recommend this to any Oklahoman!
