Born the eighth of seventeen children in Philadelphia, Betsy Ross lived in a time when the American colonies were yearning for independence from British rule. Ross worked as a seamstress and was eager to contribute to the cause, making tents and repairing uniforms when the colonies declared war. By 1779 she was filling cartridges for the Continental Army. Did she sew the first flag? That’s up for debate, but  Who Was Betsy Ross? tells the story of a fierce patriot who certainly helped create the flag of a new nation.

Well Done

I bought this for my 10 year old who decided to be Betsy Ross for Halloween. She read it in one day, and said it was "educational and interesting." She said she loved it just like all the others in the Who Was series!

Great little book

Great little book. We buy lots of Who Was books and use them for homeschool enrichment. Short chapters, larger font, and lots of pictures make these books an easy read. This was a great addition to our collection.

Perfect to use for prop for project!

Great material, easy read for kids, and such an interesting informational text.
