5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautifully illustrated introduction to Britain's history,
By
This review is from: Oxford Children's History: Earliest Times to the Stuarts (Hardcover)
This is the first of two volumes that cover the history of Britain from the Celts to the modern age. Each 2-page section is illustrated in color and contains a clear overview of even the most complex topics. Photographs of artifacts and sites are included, and the narrative is written in a way that is intended to involve the reader by posing questions and including descriptions of modern archaeological efforts. Suitable for older elementary and middle school students, this would be an excellent classroom resource or core text.

By Alexia Gilmore (Palo Alto, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oxford Children's History: Earliest Times to the Stuarts (Hardcover)
My 7-year-old daughter is a ferocious reader who loves non-fiction & fiction. She loves this book; the two-page format with lots of colorful pictures in combination with the inviting, questioning text are great. We love also the Eyewitness books, but this is a winner because it does more than, hypertext style, show pictures with captions -- the continuous narrative builds the bigger picture. I think many children would really enjoy this book; definitely schools would benefit by it.
