Drawing
What was expected of children in the 1800s?

Great news! Roscius will sell me his penograph! And I know just what I'm going to draw. First I'll make a map of North America and then a map of South America. That way I will have the whole hemisphere. And I'll use the rest of the money to buy some papers and other drawing materials. I can put in all the rivers and mountains and everything. Mother says I have real talent!

What happened to Henry and the Starr family?
