I just finished 2 books:
Animals of South America for Kids
Follow Pedro (a fictional character) as he learns about 15 different animals and tries to choose one to write his report about. As he talks about each animal, he gives clues so you can try and figure out which animal he chooses. His school report is included at the end. Some animals that are talked about are: parrots, the black-footed booby, alpacas, Galapagos tortoises, sloths, and the Amazon river dolphin.
Our Island Story Continued (The Last 100 Plus Years)
This book picks up right where Our Island Story (by H.E.Marshall) stopped, in 1900. Included are 25 chapters that go through World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and recent history (even recent events like King Charles III’s coronation in May 2023). This book tells history through stories and includes first hand accounts as well as famous poems and pictures. There’s a huge section at the back for notes and sources.
They are both available on the INK website (www.inknewspaper.net) and will soon be available at the Living Book Press. I'm excited about them and hope they're a big help for families (including my own down the road!).
