Great History for Young Readers

I really enjoy this series, and this book is no exception. The books are sturdy and boast a gorgeous and enticing design- and the text is actually a great overview of the subject. Though I've been a longtime fan of history, I actually learned a few things from this book about Ivan the Terrible. The text is a clear, straightforward biography, with lots of illustrations and no dumbing down.
