About the book

Learning Just Became BIG FUN!

Families, schools, and churches can unfold 15 feet of the most interesting history of the world. This easy to follow, color-coded, multi-stream timeline teaches six thousand years of world history to children ages seven through thirteen. These exciting facts and so much more wait inside:

  • who were the first emperors of China and Rome
  • what discovery unlocked the secrets of a forgotten language
  • how modern robotics had its roots in the tea dolls of Japan
  • where Christians faced death for the entertainment of thousands
  • why the languages of Greek and Hebrew were used to write the Bible
  • and how the Age of Discovery meant wealth some, and the destruction of civilization for others.

Understanding how the past has shaped our future will inspire young learners to make history for themselves!

Don’t forget this helpful study guide with educational opportunities to make the most of your dynamic Big Book of History!

This version is casebound with a hard cover appropriate for viewing as a book that can be turned page by page. This version will also stretch out the entire 15 feet.

My Thoughts

This book is very original and well thought.  You can go through it like a regular book where you open it and read one or two pages at a time or you could fully open it on the ground and look at it as a whole.    It is a very long book when it is open completely – more than 15 ft long!

This special timeline of history is Christian based  and will go from Creation to Modern Computers.    In it you will see the Biblical/Christianity time line as well as the World Events, the Inventions/Technology as well as the Civilizations/Empire during the same period of history. Images, photos, illustrations and more also provides visual aids to capture the time period covered.

The BIG Book of History is a must to have in your household when you want to have the Christian perspective as well as what happened in the world.  

The book is literally 15 foot long when you open it completely.   For fun I asked my two oldest boys to lay themselves next to it to see how long it would be.   As you can see from the picture it is quite long as it took almost all the length of my hall-way on the first floor on the house.

The book is fabulous to incorporate in our history lessons.   I am quite pleased with it though I find there is a lot of American history included at the end of it.   And the best part is that a Teacher’s guide of 32 pages is also available for download.

The BIG Book of History is available at your favorite bookstore, even amazon.ca.
