What great books can you recommend to prompt kids’ interest in history and widen their historical knowledge? #KidsBooksFriday #UKKidLit
From intrepid fossil hunting & amazing discoveries by an iconic self taught woman to tear jerking war drama to a mystery on a Scottish isle to steam engine trials📚

My own daughter devoured all of the My Story books - and Marcia Williams’ books. I love Emma Carroll books and sometimes read them in secondary intervention sessions to help students access curriculum. 😊 #KidsBooksFriday
