Overview of The Sign of the Beaver

The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare is a children’s historical novel that follows 13-year-old Matt Hallowell, an 18th-century American settler in Maine. After he and his father build a log cabin in the wilderness, Matt goes on many adventures as he is left alone to guard the cabin when his father leaves to retrieve the rest of their family.

While guarding the cabin, Matt learns how to survive in the wilderness with help from an Indian chief’s grandson, Attean, and his family. As Matt questions whether or not his father will return, he is invited to join the Beaver tribe and move north.

This coming-of-age story explores survival in the wilderness, historical themes, cultural differences, nature, and so much more. It is the winner of two Newbery Medals and a Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal.

Book Studies for Littles ❤️

These studies are so much fun! As my daughters became readers and I started more read alouds, I wasn’t sure what type of questions or fun activities to incorporate and now problem solved. Thank you!!

Book Study

These book studies are phenomenal! I love how much detail there is and the extra activities and resources are so helpful. My kids are always excited when we start and it's been a joy watching them fall in love with reading.

Fun, comprehensive and simple!

Just started Kindergarten with my 5 year old and preschool with my 3 year old and we love doing family book clubs and reading chapter books together with dad in the evenings! I wanted to choose books that we all would enjoy and have follow up activities if they wanted to dive deeper! Treehouse book studies have been the solution! Some weeks we just read the book, some weeks we go deeper with the recommended videos, activities and books. As my kids get older we will add more of the bonus activities in (and reread the books!), but right now, we are having fun reading longer books as a family and loving literature together! Can’t recommend these studies enough.

This is the first year using this and I’m so excited to start. A Homeschool mom shared it with me and she just loves it.

Timeless Classics

My family has been using Treehouse Schoolhouse book studies for a year now and will continue using them. As a parent, I look for these timeless classics. They are a perfect addition to our homeschool book club! Caddie Woodlawn is heartwarming tale very similar to the Little House series.
