A big visual introduction to the history of our world for children young and old.
Travel through time with this cleverly illustrated 80-page journey of our planet's culture and events, from the Big Bang to AI and into the future.
Take a trip across the timeline of world history, past dinosaurs, Vikings, Aztecs and spaceships. This fascinating book looks at wars and disasters; introduces artists, explorers and leaders; shows us living in castles, yurts and skyscrapers. And it does not neglect the imagination—here too are dragons, mythical figures and TV characters, alongside world-changing inventions borne from the imaginations of scientists and explorers. Each scene puts global events in perspective, in space and time.
With a combination of facts, figures and fun illustrations, each double-page scene covers a period in history, showing key events and aspects of culture in all parts of the world. Every page includes talking points for young children and a chance for older children and adults to put their own political, cultural and historical knowledge to the test.
This accessible and fascinating timeline of historical events is compelling for every age.
