Description
American Museum of Natural History's 6' long timeline is sure to captivate children as they learn how history ties together into one continuous story. Time begins with the Big Bang approximately 14 billion years ago, where children learn current theories on the development of space, earth, sky, sea and land. As history unfolds, the Stone Ages (3 million years ago) evolve into four groups: Asia, North Africa and Middle East, Europe and Americas around 7000 BC. As time expands, Sub-Saharan Africa and Australia are highlighted as well, as we follow the nations through 2020 AD. Contains hundreds of illustrations highlighting culture and people, discoveries and events of time as we know it. Inside the included book, you will find the removable 6' timeline, a handy magnifier and the Wall Book Chronicle (a newspaper style retelling of events from the Big Bang to the first man on the moon). Conclude with a quiz covering timeline content. No answer key provided. A fun asset to your history or science studies. Book measures 10 ½x 14, hc. ~ Deanne
