Issue #2 - Underground Treasures

The stories in this Michigan History for Kids tell about the history of some of the natural resources (natch-er-ul ree-sor-ses) found in Michigan. A natural resource is an item that is found in nature and can be used by people or animals when needed. This issue talks about natural resources that are under the ground. That is why it is called “Underground (un-der-ground) Treasures.” The resources in these stories can still be found today, but maybe not as much. Michigan has many natural resources, too many to cover in one issue of this magazine. So my friends and I will tell you about a few of them. Later on, we will tell you about more natural resources in other issues. We have found a lot of stories, pictures, questions, and games that will help you learn. Enjoy!
