The Big Book of History is written by Laura Welch and published by New Leaf Publishing Group.
The Big Book of History is a 15 foot fold out time-line. You can use it like a book and flip through the pages, or you can fold it completely out. It is a time-line that covers from Creation to the time that it was published. It as 4 different lines and each line represent 4 different events. You have Biblical events, inventions, world events and civilizations and empires.
This time-line book isn’t just a bunch of dates on a line. It has pictures and little comments through out the book to help explain the dates that are mentioned. The biblical events listed are some of the major events that happened in the bible. It also lists the major inventions, world events and civilizations/empires that have made a huge impact on our world.
The Big Book of History is colorful and very easy to follow. You can keep it compact in a book shape or you can fold it out completely and hang on the wall.
Overall, the kids and I really liked the Big Book of History. It has a lot of information that led to some great conversations. The kids enjoyed folding out the book and comparing when events happened. I see us using this often on our homeschool. It is definitely a conversation piece with my children and I.

Awesome looking book!!
I’ve been eyeing this book for a while, and think it looks so intriguing.
It is a very interesting book. I was reading other reviews and found someone who said some of the info was correct on the time line. Looks like I need to dig a little dipper into some of the dates. It is still a neat time-line and my kids love folding it out, looking at the dates and pictures on it.
