Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8–These appealing, informative books portray everyday life of inhabitants in various civilizations by examining their arts, culture, economy, government, religious beliefs, and societal structures. Each book looks at the contributions made by individuals of various vocations, such as artisans, farmers, priests, scribes, and soldiers. Significant discussion is devoted to how the civilizations have been studied by anthropologists and archaeologists. Attractively designed and illustrated, the books feature excellent color representations of architecture, artwork, and other cultural and historical artifacts. Sidebars highlight important archaeological discoveries and interesting facts. A horizontal time line shows the key events in the evolution of the civilization, and a biographical dictionary introduces important historical figures.–Edward Sullivan, White Pine School, TN

This review is from: The Ancient Celts (People of the Ancient World) (Paperback)
I bought it for my 8 year old who is quite interested in it.
The book is well structured and gives a good insight into celtic culture and history. I would not recommend it for kids younger than 8. 8-12 seems the appropriate age group for this book.
