  • The legacy of World War I


In the second part, you'll discover all about WWII, including who was involved and why it started, a timeline of events, what life was like at the time, the major battles, who some of the main heroes and villains were, and the lasting impact the war left behind. There are also interesting facts and a bonus interesting facts chapter to finish things off! There are even pronunciation tips and helpful explanations for those new, tricky words. To keep things fun and engaging, each chapter has an activity and answer section-from quizzes and word searches to creative drawing and writing challenges!

  • Could you make a great escape from a prison camp?
  • Thirty years later-the soldiers who refused to believe the war was over!
