About these guides
The people, places and turning points children meet at school, explained without the textbook fog. You will find the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age, ancient Egypt and Rome, castles and kings, wars and inventions, and the everyday details that make a period feel real — what people ate, what they wore, what a child’s day looked like. Guides say plainly when historians disagree, and flag the myths that get repeated in classrooms. Suitable for Key Stage 2 and upper elementary, with longer guides for readers aged 11 to 13.
