Big Book of History

The Big Book of History is "A 15-foot fold-out time-line from Creation to Modern Computers." The hardcover protects a huge fold-out time-line that aligns facts from history with Biblical information providing a congruous chart of historical data. From the Great Flood to The Code of Mammurabi along with the Key Rings and Hidden Cities, MasterBooks has taken fascinating facts from both the Bible and History (which are one and the same) and shown how they correspond to dates in time. My kids have had a great time pulling out the time-line, laying on the floor and reading through each of the interesting articles including but not limited to: Smallpox~a deadly history, Boo! Who? 200-900 A.D., the First Olympics, and Who Discovered the World was Created on a Sunday. While the time-line leaves out many dates, the important ones are present and the format is easily understood by children ages 7-12. Cardstock pages are durable and will withstand many viewings. If you are looking for a great starter time-line for your children, this would be a great one to invest in.
