Review: Looks like it’s going to be a great book! - I just got this book and another one for my grandsons, (6 and 8) who are really enjoying History this year and they wanted a History book we could read. The pictures are like 3-D, there seems to be a wealth of information in it, I know they are going to really like them. We read a lot but I think we will be reading even more! Review: Very nice, high-quality, engaging - This book is all it says it is. Got this for my daughter who loves geography and history. It ended up being interesting to me and my husband too. It’s really good quality, has gorgeous imagery and great educational material.

Incredible Visual History – An Absolute Steal!
I managed to snag a used copy of "When on Earth?" for under $4 on Amazon, and it is easily one of the best purchases I’ve made for my 7-year-old son. He is absolutely obsessed with it! The way this book uses detailed maps and timelines to visualize history is brilliant. Instead of just reading dates, my son can actually see how empires rose, how people moved, and where major events happened across the globe. It’s perfect for a visual learner and makes complex historical shifts easy to understand even for a Grade 2 student. The production quality of the DK Where on Earth? series is always top-notch, with vibrant illustrations that keep him engaged for hours. If you can find a deal like we did, don’t hesitate—it’s a goldmine of information that makes history feel like a grand adventure!

Algumas páginas vieram com manchas de tinta
O livro é ótimo. Trás uma boa introdução a história mundial, em mapas. Perfeito para ilustrar as aulas das crianças. Duas páginas vieram com manchas de tinta, creio que foi defeito de impressão.
