Great books to add to our homeschool collection
This is a great history reference for our homeschool. The year-by-year layout makes it easy to see what was happening in different parts of the world around the same time. It has plenty of pictures and short sections, so the kids can flip through it without feeling overwhelmed.

Amazing content, beautiful illustrations, great value.
This is a thick hard covered booked loaded with information and beautifully illustrated for under $20! There are more than 300 pages covering world history from the stone age through the digital age. The text appears factual without political bias. This would make a great gift for any school aged child. There is so much content in this book, that a child might find a topic of interest and then further pursue that topic in other reference materials if they want to more detail.

Good book but Bad condition when it came
This is a good book. Lots of pictures and interesting for children to read. BUT, I was giving it to a kid as a birthday present, but the book came ripped at the top of the spine. Looked like a used book. I didn’t notice until I was wrapping it.

Great book for kids to learn where we all started from
Love this book. So do my kids. Starts off 6.5 million years ago ends with 2020. Mentions everything with time lines and definitions to presidents and all broken down in chronological order with vibrant pictures. From the Stone Age to the Digital Age. Perfect for your 4th - 5th grader to get a heads start in Americas history to be more knowledgeable before they start junior high and high school. Awesome for Junior High kids and High Schoolers to read as well. I’m 44 years old and this book has and continues to teach me and refresh my memory.

History You're Never To Old To Learn
I brought this history book for my great-nephew for his twelfth birthday. He loves history. The book was delivered in excellent condition. From the reviews and the videos regarding this book, was the reason why I purchased this book. In my opinion, the format of this book is well detailed. The pictures are excellent. You can give this book to anyone from child, teen, and adult who loves history. This book would be a great gift for any occasion.

Justo lo que estaba buscando
Después de revisar varias opciones de libros de Historia Universal, este libro está pensado de una forma práctica, fácil y muy dinámica para los que nos interesa tener una visión resumida, global y muy bien sintetizada de la Historia Universal. Incluso ya adquirí otros para dar como regalo.

Great Book for Kids and Parents
I bought it for my kids, but I think I read more often than they do. I happened to find a typo on one page, the author's name of The Tale of Genji should be Shikibu(式部 ) instead of Shikabu.
