Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Willie McLean and the Civil War Surrender
by Candice Ransom
illustrated by Jenni Reeves

You can see a preview of this book at Google Books.
keywords: Civil War, surrender, army, Union, Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, Appomattox

This is an early reader book of historical fiction. Some of the details are true and the author gives you more information at the end. We found it at our library and I think it would be a good way for new readers to enjoy some history study on their own.
