About
We suggest waiting until second grade to begin formal history study, as it requires a more mature attention span than listening to fiction literature.
There are few comprehensive world history books written for elementary grades, and this series, written from a classical perspective, is one of the best.
We recommend that you treat this book as a framework, combining it with the historical biographies and historical fiction for children listed in the optional curriculum.
You may optionally use the matching activity book (available at amzn.to/3NSF1gk) and/or test book (available at amzn.to/3FVVgXX).
