Great Illustrations-Superficial Text,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Growing Up in Viking Times (Growing Up In Series) (Paperback)
"Growing up in Viking Times" describes daily life in Iceland during the Dark and Middle Ages. The text is simple and puts out the basic facts. The product description describes this book as being suitable for children from 9-12 years of age. Having read it, I think it is more suitable for your children between the ages of 6-9. What makes this book worthwhile are the wonderful illustrations by Angus McBride. The detailed illustrations do a great job of bringing the past back to life. However, if you are looking for more substantive, look elsewhere.
