Not being a huge history buff, I was really surprised by the fun and yet educational approach this book has. The usage of illustrations and pages on weaponry and uniforms were pleasant surprises and appealing to all ages. I believe this book would be great for middle schoolers as they begin learning about world history.
An interesting account of WW2 and illustrated in a sort of South Park kinda way, I am happy to give this book five stars. It will unlikely find a place in any museums or perhaps even libraries, however it is an interesting and fun take on an otherwise serious matter and considering the age group it is aimed at that's fine by me.
It’s hard to take the entire six year span (1939-1945) of World War II and distill it down to a few dozen pages, but I think the creators of this book have succeeded. There are of course plenty of full length books about the war and it’s good to gather the highlights in one easy to read picture book. The Nazis marched into Poland which started the German part of the war and the Japanese a couple of years later attacked the U.S. at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. One thing I found out from reading this book that I did not know: The U.S., not liking how Japan’s empire was expanding in the Pacific, stopped supplying the Japanese war machine with oil. Supposedly, they got mad and attacked us.This little book covers not only the battles, treaties and so forth chronologically, but profiles some of the leaders in the war, Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin on the Allies side, Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini on the Axis side, as well as uniforms, equipment, guns, tanks, airplanes, rationing, the Holocaust, statistics, like the death toll (55,000,000 for both sides).
This book presents an overview to main milestones of World War II. This book is info graphic that using great illustrations helps you to understand on an easy way, the history of the worst war that our humanity experienced. Not only presents you milestones but propaganda, factions and technology too.Graphics explaining uniforms, weapons, equipments, medicines and technology in general are included.Great collection book.
What a wonderful book. I was really amazed by the fun and informative and not to mention cute book describing the events of World War II. I loved the illustrations and the easy to understand texts. I've always thought that history was boring but this little book is in no way boring. This book is a very fun and enjoyable way to learn history. I love it!
Very beautiful way to relate and illustrate the events that started the second world ward and the ones that represented it. It is a great way to teach kids about what happened in the past, even if the events are not so happy. The illustrations were very symbolic, very well made, gave a lot of information about what happened in the second world war and it was educative. Nice book, would recommend it, just for the beautiful colors and creative drawings.
Before reading this book what I knew about World War II was just the dates of the war and involvement of Hitler. This book added a lot into my knowledge. Anybody who want to know about history of World War II must read this book. Highly recommended for children. Every page was illustrated in comic shape with colorful pictures as if real war is going on. I love the way author explains major characters of war at the end of book.
As somebody world health organization is incredibly inquisitive about warfare II history, this book is precisely what i used to be longing for, The book s written terribly merely and during an apothegm manner in order that anyone will perceive the history behind can work too. There is a heap of detail even if its short. All right written. Counseled for anyone world health organization likes WWII stuff.
