5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, May 14, 2007
By J. Lively (Taylors, SC USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book really got my son,7, interested in History. He remembers about every detail from it. The character animations are great! I recommend these books especially for probably 7 -10 yr old boys. I think they could get the most out of them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun book..., November 4, 2007
By Sandra L. Dwan (Salinas, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: You Wouldn't Want to Sail With Christopher Columbus!: Uncharted Waters You'd Rather Not Cross (Library Binding)
I bought two books for Columbus Day for my 5 year old. I really love this one however it is bit advanced for us right now. It has lots of captions and very busy. It's very cute and will be fun to use in a year or two! I am glad I got it but would recommend it for a 6-8 year old. We will definitely get good use out of it in the future!

5.0 out of 5 stars Colonial America in a Humorous Way, October 28, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I recommend this entire "You Wouldn't want to be . . ." series for helping to teach history to young kids. The subject is taught in a humorous way that both kids and adults can enjoy.
