Nationwide Geographic Little Children First Huge Ebook of Who (Nationwide Geographic Little Children First Huge Books)

Great Book That Gets Children (and Adults!) Thinking and Asking Questions
The National Geographic Little Kids books are favorites in our house. The Big Book of Dinosaurs and the World Atlas are already among our most read books, so I was excited to add this book to our collection. People often critique these books for not going into enough detail, however, I have found that they have the perfect amount of detail for little children. This book got my 3 year old boy and 6 year old girl thinking and asking questions about all sorts of people and inventions and places. They have asked to get books from the library about some of the people written about here; I even found myself learning new things. It’s a nice change from the worlds of princesses and trucks that I find so many of their books are about these days. This book is full of real photos and maps, which quickly grabbed my children’s attention. It covers athletes, artists, astronauts, civil rights activists, inventors, authors, and presidents, just to name a few.The 27 profiles in this book are:King TutAristotleMichelangeloWilliam ShakespeareJane AustenSequoyahSacagaweaAbraham LincolnElizabeth BlackwellIsabella BirdMatthew HensonMarie CurieMohandas GandhiAmelia EarhartGolda MeirAnsel AdamsFrida KahloTenzing NorgayElla FitzgeraldJackie RobinsonMaya AngelouMartin Luther King, Jr.Neil ArmstrongDong ZhimingThe BeatlesMichelle BacheletMalala YousafzaiThere are also an additional 33 mini profiles covering different people, but these are truly mini and just a small paragraph/photo. The mini profiles still got my children asking questions and wanting to know more, but they’re nowhere near as detailed as the 4-page spreads for the people listed above.I highly recommend this book as a collection to any small child’s library, as it teaches children that there’s such a big world out there for them to read about and discover.

This whole series is great
A couple of things you need to know. One is that these are deep and dense books that will not age out of your kid’s book shelf until they are a teenager. My son, however, is four. So, a lesson about famous people turned into a makeshift introduction into the topic of death. This may scare you, as it would have scared me, had I thought about it, it turns out this was an excellent context for this vital lesson. This is because it is a book celebrating people and the lives they lived. In this context, the length of a person’s life becomes far less relevant compared to their achievements. In fact, the first segment is about King Tut, and after reading about this lavish golden decorative place, my son started to refer to it affectionately as, “King Tut when he died.” So, yes you have now been warned, but we love all the books in this series, and each of them come packed with massive learning packed into the most dense yet unassuming format, with loads of bons facts and even activies you can stop and do. This series, Golden Books, and Dr Seuss are the MVPs of our kid’s shelf.

Informative, colorful and beautiful illustration.
I bought thos National Geographic book for my 7 year old grandson. He loves reading it and keeps his young mind occupied in learning about hreat people of this world. This book is very informative, educational and colorful. I would highly recommend NG for young minds who loves to learn.
