    Review by Andrea
    Both kids enjoyed "The Ancients." It created conversation and debates between them.
    Quite intriguing!
    Review by Neece
    The World History book set is amazing! My daughter and I love the curriculum. It was great to see her have the opportunity to navigate the various stories that somehow took her back in time, where she wrote her ideas of what transpired, and to see her eyes light up while learning about ancient history.
    Shows relationship between Bible and Ancient History
    Review by Snowangel
    My son liked America's Story better, but I really liked how The World's Story tied in how the Bible related to ancient history and what was happening at certain times around the world.
    Really enjoyed it!
    Review by Kristy
    the pictures are beautiful! I really liked how the chapters were set up, very engaging for the reader.
    Excellent world history following a Biblical timeline
    Review by Yolonda
    We loved World’s Story 1. Wonderfully written and goes through history following the Bible. My kids retained a lot due to the writing style. It gives as much information as any typical text book but in a more interesting format.
    Love!

    Our Daughter Loves This Series
    Review by Heather
    Our middle daughter loves the World History Series. She's asked to continue with Master Books because she loves the story format. It's easy to read and the pictures are fantastic.
    Great history curriculum
    Review by Shanna
    My daughter and I greatly enjoyed this curriculum. It really brings history to life and I love that it has you read scripture out of the bible in some areas to really clarify and show what is being taught, and how it all ties to God. I highly recommend this to families that want an interesting, as well as biblical, view of world history.
    Great
    Review by Laura
    We are liking this history curriculum. We finished the America's Story 1-3 prior years then moved to this one for 6-8th. Master Books history is one of the best.
