Story of the World
We have been reading Story of the World books for about 3 years. Volume 1 is Ancient History. . The author gives the facts and does not slant the books toward any religion. The Middle Ages tells of Castles, Kings and Barbarians and wars. There were a few events explained as they happened, so the first time through, we skipped a few chapters, when my children were young. However, they are now old enough to read the stories and have liots of questions. Volume 3 and 4 are based on more current modern times. These books have been great for elementary, middle and high-school age children. I bought the books for my children to read as I either read to them or the cd was played. the The narrator has a wonderful voice, which helps the younger children stay engaged in the story. There are also workbooks available to purchase, which contain questions and projects for each chapter. I would definitely recommend these books!
