What Were the Salem Witch Trials?
What Were the Salem Witch Trials? | Joan Holub
5 posts | 3 read | 1 to read
Something wicked was brewing in the small town of Salem, Massachusetts in 1692. It started when two girls, Betty Parris and Abigail Williams, began having hysterical fits. Soon after, other local girls claimed they were being pricked with pins. With no scientific explanation available, the residents of Salem came to one conclusion: it was witchcraft! Over the next year and a half, nineteen people were convicted of witchcraft and hanged while more languished in prison as hysteria swept the colony. Author Joan Holub gives readers and inside look at this sinister chapter in history.

"She would have her work cut out for her to make everyone believe she was innocent." This bobble-head nonfiction book by Joan Holub gave so many interesting facts about the Salem witch trials.

krystag I have always seen these books but never read one! I think they would be great to supply informative text in the classroom, especially since they are packed with facts and aren't too long! 7y
haiimelanie This book looks really interesting, I'd love to learn more about the Salem witch trials from reading it. Were there any major facts? 7y
