As a grandparent or teacher, do you find it difficult knowing where to look for homework help online? DK has the answer. Their new Children's Encyclopedia offers a safe, structured complement to the internet.
Perfectly pitched for 7 to 9 year olds, this encyclopedia boasts a raft of colourful illustrations and photographs to accompany clear text that is appropriately levelled and endorsed by education consultants. This highly illustrated and accessible encyclopedia also features:
Over 240 key topics relevant to the age group are included, ranging from the Stone Age to Space Travel, Pirates to Pollution, and Machines to Musical Instruments; the information is clearly and simply structured into single-page entries that are arranged A-Z. Colour coding anchors each page to its core subject area; the nine core subject areas include History, Science, Nature, Art, People, and Earth.
Extensive cross references on each page ensure that readers never get stuck in one place in the book. They can create their own journey through the book and make connections between many different subjects and topics.
The pages come together to provide children with thousands of incredible and essential facts; other features include a comprehensive clear A–Z contents list, a supporting reference section with key dates, names and diagrams, and an extensive glossary.
Double-page ‘story’ spreads investigate broader topics, such as ‘War’, ‘Festivals’, and ‘Invention’; these pages explore a subject in a cross-curricular way – making big topics more accessible and enabling children to learn about them from many different angles.
The Children's Encyclopedia is published by DK and is available online and from all good booksellers.
