Reach for this book when your child starts asking those big, persistent questions about what life was like before modern technology and internet. It is the perfect remedy for a student who finds history textbooks dry or distant. This comprehensive guide peels back the layers of time to reveal the everyday realities of ancient Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, focusing on the human elements that children relate to best: what people ate, where they slept, and how they had fun. While it is an educational resource, its emotional core is rooted in curiosity and wonder. It helps children build a sense of historical empathy by showing that kids thousands of years ago were not so different from themselves. The book is ideally suited for children ages 8 to 14, providing enough detail for middle school research projects while remaining accessible enough for an elementary student to browse during a quiet afternoon of discovery.
