An engaging, alternative history of the world for children, which
helps to make sense of today. The present can loom very large in a
child's mind: all the crises and challenges of the modern world can
feel overwhelming and at times dispiriting. This book is a big
history of the world, from the beginnings of the universe to now,
which places the reader at its centre. It encourages them to think
about how and why they experience the world as they do and offers a
helpful perspective by placing their thoughts and feelings in the
context of our history and evolution. Big Ideas From History is an
immense story of what has happened through time that speaks
personally and constructively to a growing mind. What might the
dinosaurs or the ancient Egyptians, the Aztec warriors or the
Enlightenment thinkers of the 18th century tell us that could be
interesting and useful to hear now? The insights we need are
scattered in time and place, waiting to be discovered. The book
also looks to the future and asks the reader to imagine a world
they would like to live in. What might they learn from
self-knowledge? How can they grow, develop and create their own
place in history? It is a thoughtful and inspiring introduction to
the world around us, which encourages the child to engage with
themselves and others through history.
