 | Holds your attention! Jul 29, 2008 |
| I love this book! It is easy to understand and my two homeschooled children love it! | | |  | Love it! Jun 9, 2008 |
I love this whole series of books-- and so do my children! This year, my almost 7-year old ASKED for this book for his BIRTHDAY!!!
| | |  | Good Resource! May 20, 2008 |
| This is very well written. A great help to helping children understand History. It makes reading about the past fun and enjoyable. | | |  | Enjoyable Look at History Mar 3, 2008 |
I began with Story of the World Vol. 1 by recommendation of a friend. I think I've enjoyed this volume even more. The chapters are short and are written in a way that holds my son's attention well (he just turned eight). I highly recommend getting the activity book to accompany this. It contains maps, coloring pages, games, review cards, and many suggestions for crafts to illustrate each chapter. There are also comprehension questions, narration, and suggestions for further reading.
My daughter is almost six, and she is not as excited about this series. I think if we didn't have the activity book she would not enjoy history at all. That may simply be because it's not her interest, while my son likes anything non-fiction, but it is also written a bit above her comprehension level. I would wait to use this until at least age seven. My son at this point begs me to read just one more chapter every day.
As for those who've said this is historical inaccurate, I would say that I haven't found a huge margin of error. When I have come across something that contradicts what I've learned elsewhere, I consider it an opportunity to dialog with my kids about it. Or I skip it. I also believe that at this age my focus is to expose them to the idea of history and culture rather than to drill them on historical facts.
