Product Description
What modern boy or girl wouldn’t want to be called “Precious Child,” as parents in ancient China referred to their children? Or wear a gorgeous silk brocade jacket, as wealthy youngsters did? Or nibble on a crunchy roasted cricket? This fun book explores every aspect of life for Chinese children “way back when,” from distinctive toys like a live “pet” dragonfly to hand-made lesson books to shopping at the exciting markets or strolling down the Silk Road in search of treasures. Vivid illustrations, detailed historical background, and a glossary bring this intriguing time to life for young readers.
Reader Reviews
The content of this book did not disappoint me. It covers topics such as shopping, clothing, and religion. Unfortunately, the best pictures are on the cover. A lot of the pictures are almost like clip art or stylized designs, not images or drawings of real artifacts. This was rather disappointing. It is still a useful text and it is easy for second-graders to read (with the exception of some of the proper nouns). I recommend this book, but the images leave a lot to be desired.
