Kids Books - History

This book really has some interesting facts about men I never have even heard of before, including Eric Bloodaxe, who was murdered by a rival monarch! This book is really fun to read because it always has something new to learn, even for the greatest king experts. And the Book of Queens is the perfect companion to this! You should read them both!

That looks like an interesting book to read

At my old school, i had a teacher ( we're friends ) and we'd have this book club just us two ad we'd talk about books. ( this was in 3rd grade and i was and am a good reader). she recommended this book and i just loved it. I actually think i read the adult version. But either way i LOVE this book. Def read it

A great one if you like men in history who stood up for what the believed in, defied gravity, and did other amazing things. I loved it! 5 stars!

We gave this book at a baby shower and my mom has read this book to me, when I was little, many times. The illustrating is incredible and the speech MLK gave was amazing! I loved every bit of it. I highly suggest it for any age!

I loved this book. It proved that you don't just have to live in the United States to do great things!

This book is so perfect for African-American girls or people who are Black. It is such an inspiring read and so very important for Black girls like me to know that there are inspirational women who did great things and also looked like them. Really, Everyone should read this book! Your Friendly Reviewer, Lotte Parker

This book is phenomenal! This tree survived the 911 attack. It's still so amazing that it survived at 30 years old (the tree was only supposed to live 20 years)! The tree is now 50 years old. This books main idea always to right. You would much indeed like this book if you like history since this was a attack 20 years ago.

This book was so good but when I read this book it was September 11 the day the twin towers came down I really felt sad and this book is a book that keeps a special day I know this book isn't all about this but it keeps a special moment in it.

This is a wonderful little book! I think it was meant for a younger audience, which I didn't realise when I picked it up, but it's just as interesting for adults. I've read loads about the Titanic and I still learned new things from this book. I liked the way it was laid out. A page or two about the ship, then a page about menus on board or the people who traveled, then the ship again and so on. Made it very easy to read. It gave lists of what was loaded on to the ship for the voyage and this was fascinating, '40 tonnes of potatoes', holy moly!! There are also some nice little sketches interspersed throughout. Very interesting and sad! It's a lovely edition to have on your bookshelves too.
