Summary

Usborne Beginners History is a top value collection containing ten easy-to-read books about the people and places of the past. Every page is packed with full-colour illustrations and is written specifically for children aged 5-7 learning to read. It’s developed in consultation with reading experts, so you can be confident that these books are suitable for your kid.

History is one of the most fascinating subjects, but it can also be hard to get into. It’s not just about dates and battles; history is full of everyday people who did extraordinary things. Even though we know that history isn’t dull, sometimes it can seem a little too big or complicated to enjoy learning about.Β 

Usborne Beginners History is a fantastic collection that brings together exciting stories in an easy-to-understand way with lots of fun illustrations on every page. They've been specially designed for children who want to find out more about the past without having to read long chapters or heavy books.

Your child will love exploring history through these fun, easy-to-read books. They’ll learn about famous figures from the past, how life used to be lived long ago, what happened at different times in history – all while they develop their reading skills. There are even glossaries at the back of each book so you can make sure you’ve learnt all the new vocabulary correctly. It’s another wonderful product from the trusted children’s publisher Usborne.

If you’re looking for more non-fiction to add to your collection at home, make sure to check out our full Usborne Beginners range for books on nature, science and more everyday topics. If it’s fiction you’re after, make sure you look at the Usborne Reading Programme, which is designed to help kids grow from reading simple stories to more complex narratives.

What’s in the collection?

There are an incredible ten books included, written by a combination of Usborne’s regular authors. They cover a wide range of periods, from the Stone Age up to Medieval times. They also cover African, European and Central American civilisations for the most comprehensive overview.

  • In Ancient Greeks, you can find out more about Greek gods and heroes, what Greeks liked to do for fun, and all about their favourite foods.
  • You can find out all about Castles, the people who lived in them, and why they stand in ruins.
  • Discover how The Celts were fighters, craftspeople, and tale-tellers.
  • Digging Up the Past shows how history is uncovered, a shovel and a trowel at a time.
  • Learn how the Egyptians made mummies, buried their treasure under pyramids, and farmed on the banks of the River Nile.
  • Find out how people lived, died, created and worshipped in The Iron Age.
  • Journey to Central America to meet The Maya, who built towering temples, lived in stone cities and fought in the jungle.
  • Uncover how the Romans built the modern world but lived and worshipped very differently from us.
  • The Stone Age rocks! Learn all about farming, tools, making shelters, and catching food.
  • Sail forth to meet the Vikings, who feasted, fought, and had all sorts of fun and games.
