I am using this book along with a History book I ordered from Christian Liberty Press... There was a big gap in History in the Christian Liberty Press book at first.. It began with the Vikings and jumped to Christopher Columbus.. I found in this book "The Complete Book of United States History", there were several more things I could teach after the story of the Vikings and before the story of Christopher Columbus. Such as the Ice Age, different types of Indians that were living in the lands of the Americas when the Vikings came, the types of animals they hunted, the vegetables they grew, the way they made clothes, money, calendars, etc, etc,... this has been a great tool to go with my main History book! It has filled in the gaps so far and added alot of "color" (so to speak) to our U.S. History studies this school year.... I would recommend this to accompany any U.S. History curriculum. It says it is for grades 3-5. I am using it for my 5th and 7th grader and it is not to elementary for either of them and they are both average students...this may be a little much for a 3rd grader?.? That is a matter of opinion. It has been two years since I have had a 3rd grader so I can't accurately remember..Read full review
Love the print size, the graphics, and the exciting story writing on each historical figures life. A great resource for homeschooling teachers, but also could stand alone as a daily history curriculum! I have an active 3rd grader that hates a boring story...she was captivated by the story lines and the pictures..some of which were museum like reproductions of actual events! I wish my history had been this interesting. Well organized chapter headings...if used as a resource to supplement another curriculum, this set-up makes it super easy for very busy teachers to find the subject matter they need to supplement.
This book has nice pictures and is easy to read for children. I would recommend it.
