These books would be a great resource to support teaching and subject knowledge in history and art history. They can be downloaded for free directly from the artystories.org website so children could have a copy infront of them if using as a whole class. Please see below for subject content of each book.
They cover stories of events and lives from 3,000 BC through today and the influence of art that reflects these societies.
A new and accessible introduction to the myriad lives and wonderful art over the centuries.
Ideal for students to create interest for complimentary studies in both art and history.
