My review

rating: 5 of 5 stars
My children love these books. Well, they love listening to them over and over on CD. These books provide a solid historical outline of major historical events. Because my children listen to the Cd's over and over they practically have these books memorized. Once this solid outline is in place it is easy for me to pull a classic book off the self and read it to them and they can understand where in history this fits in. The CD's themselves (narrated by great voices) are on my top 5 homeschooling resources. Teaching World History could not be easier...

My kids and I LOVE this history curriculum. We did try and listen to the CD, but there was too many times we were trying to make comments and having to pause and such so we borrowed the textbook from a friend. We LOVE IT! So much easier to remember and understand.
