History books for 7 yo

[maggiethecat]

Dd who is almost 7 has recently been saying that she enjoys history and I wonder if there are any books pitched at this age?

Bubblefacts - this range of books are really nice for this age. They do a range of hisotry ones, in additional to other topics.

I Wonder Why - some of these are hsitory based too and again are pretty good for this age and a bit older too.

These look good esp the bubblefacts - think I may well get some since it seems as if history is her new love.

We have quite a few. I did manage to find some in The Works for 99p each.

The Usbourne young reading series has a few nice history-based ones. My 7 year old has enjoyed the Castles one, and is currently reading about Florence Nightingale!

will check those out too - thanks

www.thebookpeople.co.uk the book people have the horrible histories collection for £9.99 for 10 books for age 7+

I suspect that horrible histories on cbbc has helped to fuel the interest in the subject.

Usborne First History of the World, you can get it cheap on amazon, very colourful and accessable for a 7 yr old.

since reading this post ive been on the book peoples site and ordered dd some books and some for me and ive been on redhouse books website and ordered some for dd and some for me and spent £46 on 47 books! We shall be kept busy for quite some time
