Live Like a Victorian is a fascinating journey back in time to discover what life was really like during the Victorian era.
This beautifully illustrated book takes young readers on an immersive tour of a transformative period in history (1837 - 1901), when the Industrial Revolution, new inventions, and social change reshaped life in Britain. From grand mansions to crowded workhouses, young readers will explore the stark contrasts between the lives of the wealthy and the poor, gaining insight into Victorian fashion, food, jobs, education, and even life in prisons and service.
Engaging storytelling, vibrant illustrations, and historical facts bring the era to life, while fictional accounts from two Victorian children - one rich and one poor - help young readers compare experiences and understand the realities of the time.
The book also features hands-on activities, including crafts and recipes, to encourage interactive learning. A timeline highlights key events and laws that shaped the era. This wonderfully illustrated book includes detailed maps showcasing the British Empire and trade routes.
