The Cold War: A History Just for Kids!

By KidCaps

Book Overview

The Cold War was one of the longest and most tense rivalries in modern history-a competition between two powerful countries that lasted more than 40 years. But what made the United States and the Soviet Union such fierce opponents?

This book helps kids explore the big ideas behind the Cold War in a clear and easy-to-understand way. Divided into six main sections, it looks at why the two sides disagreed, how they competed without actually going to war, and what life was like for people living through this extraordinary time.

Perfect for young readers who are curious about history, this book takes a closer look at one of the most fascinating chapters of the 20th century.
