Review: Informative and well presented - This book series is fab, my 7 year old loves them. We have this one, and one on WWI and the Titanic. They’re beautifully illustrated and presented with little boxes of information, enabling you to dip in and out of them without being overwhelmed by too much text. I would say these books would be good for anyone in KS2, although younger children will also enjoy them with a bit of adult help - my 5 year old little girl certainly does!
Review: Great for Kids and Adults - Bought this for my 7 year old grandson he loves you reading the stories to him, as he gets older he will read it himself. When discussing remembrance at school, his teacher was impressed at his knowledge. Very interesting for an adult to read very educating.
