The history of people—everything that has happened in the past, whether yesterday or thousands of years ago—is a key part of social studies. History is somewhat like a story, but a complicated one. Not only is it the study of past events but also the study of why these events happened. This thought-provoking book will have young historians thinking about the history of their communities and of the wider world. They’ll consider causes and effects and make connections with their own lives, both important standards of elementary social studies curricula.
