This book REALLY deserves a review.
It’s absolutely beautiful and AMAZING.
5 stars out of 5!
It’s a book that teaches you the history of the world from the dinosaurs to the year 2000AC.
Perfect for both adults and children.
It’s absolutely FULL of beautiful coloured illustrations and photos.
I decided to take pictures of some beautiful illustrations and pages from the book as the ad doesn’t show any, which it’s a shame.
Highly recommended.

Bought as a gift for my son, this encyclopedia has already been used on two occasions to help with school work. It has just enough information to keep his interest, but not too much to overwhelm. Definitely recommend

Usborne are perfect for giving your child a taster for things and this book doesn’t disappoint. My nine year old can dip in and out of this book depending on his study and he has learned some fascinating facts.

interesting read for adults, too.

Bought this book for my grandson (age 12) which proved to be a definite hit for him. Since he has only been learning about British history this encyclopedia of world history was just the job.
