Hi Laura,
Here are a few thoughts.  Some may be a tad long for first graders, but could be simplified.
The First Dog by Jan Brett
21 Elephants by Phil Biuldner
The Story of Paper by Compenstine
Around the World to Win the vote:2 Suffragettes, a kitten and 10,000 miles by Rockliff

Hi.  Here’s a request from a teacher.  Any suggestions welcome!

I was wondering if you know of any grade 1 appropriate read alouds that discuss themes of how the past influences the present? My class is discussing how it is important to learn about the past and study its impact on the present in social studies. I was hoping to read them a book that explores this idea.
