Dear Mrs. Copley,

 The name of my book is Coming to Detroit. The genre is non-fiction. This book is non-fiction because it is about real events and real people in the history of Detroit.

 One thing I learned was that Detroit was the home of the largest stove making company in the world. I also learned that Detroit made half of the ships on the Great Lakes. The author used a lot of details so I could understand the history of Detroit. The details helped me make a picture of what was happening. What I found most interesting was that Detroit was the home of the largest stove. I found this most interesting because it was cool that it was the world's largest.

Dear Mrs. Copley,

     The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit and the genre I am reading is non-fiction. This book is non-fiction because it's about historical events that actually happened in Detroit.
     Two things I learned was that Detroit was the largest stove company in the world and Detroit was smelting a lot of copper. Detroit was the largest stove company because the owner made the stoves so high quality that everyone wanted one. Detroit was smelting a lot of copper because it was making pipes, jewelry and wiring.   I think it was cool that  coal and iron were being produced in Detroit because they made it into a liquid to make stoves. I thought it was very interesting reading about Detroit!

    The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit. The genre is non-fiction. This is non-fiction because it talks about events that actually happened in Detroit.

One thing I learned was that the population of Detroit in the 1860s was 77,577. Another thing I learned was that half of the ships on the Great Lakes came from Detroit. The author gave such good detail that i could picture everything in my head. What I thought interesting was that half of the boats on the Great Lakes came from Detroit.

Dear Mrs. Copley,

     The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit. The genre is non-fiction. This book is non-fiction because it talks about real businesses in Detroit's past.

I learned a lot, but what I found most interesting were the stoves. People from Detroit had to buy stoves from New York. It took a lot of time and cost a lot of money. A man from New York, named Jeremiah Drayer, knew how to make stoves. He moved to Detroit to start manufacturing stoves in Detroit. People from Detroit and all over Michigan bought stoves from his company. I found this interesting because I know Detroit as a city for car companies instead of stove companies.  Another reason I found this interesting is because I thought Jeremiah Drayer could earn more money making stoves in New York. I am so glad I had a chance to learn more about Detroit and it being the home of quality stoves.

          The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit. The genre of the book is non-fiction. The book is a non-fiction book because it tells about the businesses that Detroit had from the past.

          One thing I learned was that in 1870, the population of Detroit was 79,577 and that was a lot back then. Another thing I learned was that in 1893 Horse-drawn street cars were replaced by trolleys. What I found most interesting was the stoves the interesting thing about is that you had to buy them from New York and that it cost a lot of money to ship the stove from New York to Detroit.

Dear Mrs. Copley,

The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit.  The genre is non-fiction because it tells you facts.

           One thing I learned was that Michigan had a lot of iron ore in the U.P. This was used in factories in Detroit to make stoves and candle holders.  Another thing I learned was Detroit made railroad cars before regular cars.  One special railroad car was the refrigerator car that kept things cold.The most interesting thing was that Detroit was the stove capital of the world. One company even built a giant stove.

Dear Mrs. Copley,

The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit the genre I am reading is non-fiction. This book is non-fiction because it is historical about real events that really happened in Detroit.

The thing I found most interesting was the stove company in the 19th century Detroiters purchased a cast iron wooden stove from upstate New York. By 1964 the Detroit Stove Company was noticed for their quality. The company was getting so large that they had to change their name to Michigan Stove Company, and declared Detroit the "stove company of the world." Columbia Exposition in Chicago made the largest stove in the world. The stove weighed 15 tons and stood 25 feet tall. Another thing I found interesting was that in 1817 the city had 14,000 homes, 52 churches, 24 public schools, and 14 hospitals and asylums. Most of the people that live in Detroit are immigrants that live here to day. I am so happy that we get to learn about our own city.

Dear Mrs. Copley,
     The book I am reading is called Coming to Detroit. The genre is non-fiction.
      The first thing i learned was that   in the 1870s,  Detroit had 14,000 homes, 52 churches, 24 public schools, and 14 hospitals and asylums.That's so crazy right. The second thing I learned was that in 1868, Detroiter William Davis patented the first refrigerator rail car. He sold the design to George H. Hammond, a Detroit meat packer, who built a set of cars to ship his meat to the east coast. The thing I found the most interesting is in the 19th century, Detroiters had to buy cast iron wood and kitchen stoves from upstate New York.It took a lot of time and a lot of money to ship stoves and repair parts to Detroit.

 Dear Mrs. Copley, 
 
 The book I am reading is called Coming To Detroit. The genre of this book is non-fiction because it is based  on facts, real people, and real events.

  One of the things I learned,  was that half of the Detroiters were born outside the United States. A second thing I learned, was that Detroit ranked 18th in size in the United States.The most interesting fact that I have read so far, was that in 1868 William Davis invented the first refrigerated  rail car. It used ice from the Great Lakes to keep it cool. That is innovation! 
    
                    Sincerely,
                    Jaden

Dear Mrs.Copley,
   The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit and the genre of my book is non-fiction. This book is non-fiction because it is a true story and has real things.

   Two things that I learned are it was expensive to send packages from long distances and before there was cars there was horses and carriages. Copper is made of steal, pipes, jewelry and more. I found this most interesting because I never knew that and I thought it was just made of metal that is a different color.

Dear Mrs. Copley,   The book I  am reading is Coming To Detroit  and the genre is Nonfiction. The book is Nonfiction because it's a real story and with living things.                                                   
I learned that in 1879, The Detroit Dry Dock Company had purchased a large shipyard Wyandotte Michigan. The people began building massive fresh water vessels and other things. In the 1890's Detroit had emerged as a center of heavy industry. Michigan's Upper Peninsula and easy access to coal.

Dear Mrs.Copley,
    The book I am reading is Coming to Detroit. The genre of my book is nonfiction because it is about the history of Detroit in the 19th century. 
     I learned that their are three kinds of transportations railroad, ship and stoves. I also learned about coper smelting, that means removal of contaminants from coper, so pure copper can be used to make wiring        pipes and jewelry. 
I also learned that half of the people who lived in Detroit are immigrants who came from other countries. I found this interesting because I can tell that Detroit is a multi cultural city.
