History for Children,
By
This review is from: A Child's History of the World (Paperback)
V. M. Hillyer is SO readable. My children continue to love reading his books. We have his geography, his art, and history of the world and we love his style of writing. OK, the first four chapters of this book are arcane... "men once lived in caves... drinking blood instead of milk, eating raw meat... and then (ta da!) fire was discovered... Pretty sorry stuff and yet it is a great opportunity to tell my children that even very intelligent people believe this stuff. But he does improve,
By chapter five things turn around and we get good old Hillyer able to tell the story of the world at a level that totally appeals to the elementary school student and leaves them with a plethora of knowledge. My children beg to read their history lesson in this book. I get a great overview to boot! |
