If You Were Me and Lived in Ancient China
Carole P. Roman
This
book is part of a series designed to introduce children to how
other people live in different countries and during different time
periods. Using a mixture of
illustrations and photography, the author talks about children who lived the time of Ancient China and the Han Dynasty and what life might have been
like if you were a
little boy or girl
who lived during that time. She talks about location, family, food, and
fun. The
difficult or unfamiliar words have a pronunciation beside them and are
all included in a pronunciation guide at the back of the book.
My children really enjoy this series and look forward to each one. While
the style of the book is laid out like a story, this is non-fiction and
more informative. Children will learn quite a bit about the the history from the view point of
other children around the world while having fun reading. I would
recommend this book for family fun or for schools as an addition to
curriculum.
I received this book free of charge in exchange for my honest review.
