Reviews

A fun way to be introduced to history. I wish I had this book when I was in primary school! Brilliant. * London Mums Magazine * See Inside the History of Britain is a superb round-up of the history of our fair islands, stretching back as far as early Britain, through troubled medieval times right up to Britain at War. Each double-page spread is filled with flaps and sections to reveal and explore. You can look behind the scenes at a Tudor house, or discover what lurks in a medieval forest or castle. * Read It Daddy * This is a marvellous history book... We highly recommend see inside History of Britain as an exciting addition to any child's non-fiction book collection. * Adventures in Homeschooling *
