MID: Books regarding Westward Expansion

[Marcia Norris <mnorris@ISGROUP.NET>]

A colleague is looking for titles (fiction or non-) to supplement her
unit of westward expansion.  She is an 8th grade teacher.  What do you
recommend?

P.S.  My all-time favorite book(s) were the Little House books.  Read
them all many times and I own my old copies plus I've bought a whole new
set!
