Excellent History for Little Kids and their Grandmas
Well, this book was a nice surprise! Whenever you want to learn about something you think you don't know anything about, it's sometimes good to start with a children's book on the subject. I had never heard of a world history text for youngsters of elementary age before. I sent a copy (not found on eBay) to my young grandchildren. But before I sent it, I looked at it myself. The narration was simple and reader-friendly without being wimpy - and I found myself learning things about world history that I vaguely had heard of but never really had a handle on! Wasn't I supposed to have learned this stuff long ago in school? Maybe I wasn't taught it - or maybe I didn't care to learn it. It might have been both. I became so interested in the basics of world history that I bought a copy ... Well, this book was a nice surprise!

Wasn't I supposed to have learned this stuff long ago in school? Maybe I wasn't taught it - or maybe I didn't care to learn it. It might have been both. I became so interested in the basics of world history that I bought a copy on eBay for myself. It's a little like learning to read - you discover things that were only hints in your brain before. The writing is very clear and elementary-level reader-friendly. It was written by V. M. Hillyer, the guiding light of the Calvert School of Maryland, whose home education system was one of the first homeschooling systems in the country. This book was written long ago and apparently updated in several aspects, and some people would think it's old-fashioned; I think it's fine. The lesson? Old dogs can learn new tricks! So can young children!
