Summary |
This book allows you to meet everyday children throughout history. What if you could look back in time and meet everyday children just like you, but from a totally different world? How We Lived is an amazing window into history through the lives of children through time, showing the clothes they wore, the food they ate, the games they played, and the amazing worlds they lived in. Each section opens with a new child introducing themselves to the reader in a stunning illustrated double-page scene. Behind them, the reader can see the child's environment, from prehistoric Turkey to imperial China. This is followed by a fact-filled spread explaining details of the scene, allowing readers to see their tools they used, the toys they loved, the food they ate, and much more. Join them in a Viking village, explore a Neolithic town, and race with them on horseback across the Scythian plains. How We Lived is an unforgettable journey back in time. |
