Barreling Over Niagara Falls by Nancy Kelly Allen

In 1901, Annie Edson Taylor designed and had constructed a barrel to safely take her over Niagara Falls. She planned to travel and tell of her adventure as a way of making money. Her plan was successful and this picture book for elementary students explains how she accomplished her goal.  It also tells of other adventurers who went over Niagara Falls or walked above it. This would be an especially good book for families who plan to visit Niagara Falls.
