How was everyday life for children long ago? Did they have pets? Did foreign students feel homesick? What was it like to go shopping in a big city? What sort of games did they play?
          In this book, imagination takes off from carefully researched fact to create ten fascinating stories of children from times past, panning India’s history from around 3500 bce onward. Alongside are bits of interesting information — easy to absorb, just enough for added atmosphere. Finely etched pictures come together in collages to illustrate each story. A perky ant leads the trail through a very visual activity section that makes tracking history so much fun!
96 pages, 9" x 6.5", black and white, soft cover,  for 10 years and above
