The Adventures of King Arthur
Russell Punter - 2017
This new Graphic Stories series from Usborne provide a great gateway to potentially difficult stories for young readers to learn to enjoy. Specifically designed to be readable by children aged 7 +, with vocabulary and sentence structures that match their ability, these stories are entertaining, and the fun, action-packed illustrations are a great way to initiate reluctant readers, in particular boys, to the pleasure of sitting down and reading a book, plunging into an imaginary universe and be taken away by a story. The stories are classics of Western culture that children should be familiar with. The first two in the series, Robin Hood and King Arthur, will be followed by Dracula, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and other retellings of classic literature with eye-catching illustrations and vibrant dialogue. Also a great addition to libraries' catalogues.
Fascinating Facts for the Whole Family
Nayden Kostov - 2017
This book will entice them into reading and learning new stuff while having fun.I created the popular trivia website RaiseYourBrain and wrote two trivia books so far. As I was new to writing for kids, my son Pavel (aged 8) helped me very much. He reads a lot and really loves learning new things every day. Pavel proudly illustrated the book and helped me to handpick and order the facts.The book contains 600+ pieces of trivia and is covering topics that kids love: cute animals and human body. The lack of explicit sexuality, foul language or gore makes it a good read for anyone in the age range 8-18 years (and their parents too ;) ).A life hack if your child is NOT an avid reader: when you are preparing his/her lunch box, slip inside a couple of those facts. You could print out three facts every day to create some lunchtime fun for your kids and provoke their intellectual curiosity.
