            “PHACOPS RANA AND OTHER PENNSYLVANIA SYMBOLS is a terrific learning tool for teachers, parents, and children. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to expand their knowledge of the fascinating history of our great Commonwealth. This book is enlightening, well-illustrated and a joy to read. It artfully captures the rich tapestry that is our Pennsylvania history.”

Rep. Adam Harris (R-82 Juniata, Mifflin, and Snyder Counties)

            “Did you know that Pennsylvania has a state song and a state beverage?

            In this third workbook in her PA state history series, Sandy Sieber continues her excellent presentations of Pennsylvania facts in a simple and fun way for students to learn important trivia about their state.

            PHACOPS RANA AND OTHER PENNSYLVANIA SYMBOLS is an outstanding

review of all of the Keystone State’s symbols, including photos, sketches, review

questions for the student, and teacher guidelines. Written for the tween and teen reader, Sandy’s booklet, as well as either of her other two in the series, THE FLYING BANANA AND OTHER PENNSYLVANIA TRANSPORTATION and ARCHBALD POTHOLE AND OTHER PENNSYLVANIA STATE PARKS will fulfill the state requirement in elementary and secondary school for Pennsylvania history.  

            Homeschool supervisors, your search to fulfill your state history requirement has ended with this book.”

Who the Creators of This Book Are

            Sandy Sieber holds both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s Degree in Education from Bloomsburg State College. She taught public school full-time but now works part-time as a substitute teacher so she can educate her children at home. She has published other Pennsylvania history workbooks called The Flying Banana and Other Pennsylvania Transportation and Archbald Pothole and Other Pennsylvania State Parks.

            The illustrator of Sandy’s Pennsylvania books, Tad Sieber is her son and a 2009 homeschool graduate with a Pennsylvania Homeschoolers Accreditation Association (PHAA) Diploma. Tad completed the drawings as part of his high school senior year art studies. 

            Mrs. Sieber’s son, Matthew Sieber, researched and wrote the section on the ruffed grouse during his junior high school year.

            Destiny Moyer, who did the cover design, is a friend of the Sieber family. She graduated in 2009 with a degree in graphic design from The Art Institute of York, Pennsylvania.

            Even more people had a part in making this book happen. Mrs. Sieber’s homeschool evaluator, Marsha Hubler, who wrote the Keystone Stable Series, learned Sandy liked to write, invited her to a critique group meeting, and has been an invaluable help to Sandy ever since. Mrs. Sieber presently belongs to another writers’ critique group. Its members: Pat Parker, Judy Sharar, Edna Cravitz, Robin Feltman, Judy Gilbert, Brenda Hendricks, Gwen Jones, and Sally Coup, continually read Sandy’s writing, give her advice, and encourage her.
