Summary: |
From the Stone Age to the Modern Age, the same location is depicted on double-page layouts filled with cultural details and daily activities. Endmatter includes a time-traveling quiz and a glossary. The illustrations are visually very busy. |
Teaching Ideas: |
The book could be paired with Ventura's Houses or Wheatley and Rawlin's My Place. The structure of the book suggests comparison and contrast activities of different periods of history. Because the illustrations emphasize detail, teachers may want to encourage students to make generalizations about the changes in work and status in the community, what is gained and what is lost. |
