Book captivates and informs childrem!,
By
This review is from: The Vikings (Landmark Books) (Paperback)
"The Vikings" is a very informative book which captivated my childrens attention! They could hardly wait for each day's new reading. My 2nd-7th grade children enjoyed learning about the exciting adventures of Leif Erikson and the Viking explorers. We all learned much from this well written introduction to America's earliest explorers and we highly recommend it!

This review is from: The Vikings (Landmark Books) (Paperback)
Janeway is a wonderful storyteller making Eric the Red and Leif the Lucky come alive. My kids all enjoyed the book and my 8 year old son begged to read more about the Viking adventures. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed and learned from this book. It also inspired us to learn more about Norse mythology. What a great way to study history!
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Read!,
This review is from: The Vikings (Paperback)
I enjoyed learning about the daily lives of the Vikings and also the adventure of Eric the Red and his son, Leif. I would recommend this as read aloud for any family who wants to learn more about Vikings and enjoys adventure or for a child at about the 5th grade reading level. This coordinated beautifully with The Mystery of History Volume 2 lessons about the Vikings.

Way too tough for a fourth grader,

This review is from: The Vikings (Landmark Books) (Paperback)
This book would probably be more for a fifth or sixth grader. Very long and complex for a 10-year old. The book was interesting but too wordy to hold his interest all the way through.
