A History of the Renaissance and Reformation History for Young Readers Written in a lively style for young readers, and aligned with the Core Knowledge Sequence curriculum for Grade 5, Rats, Bulls, and Flying Machines makes history more than "just a bunch of names and dates." It emphasizes the story in history, brings interesting characters to life, and provides plenty of engaging anecdotes - even an occasional cartoon! Rats, Bulls, and Flying Machines is generously illustrated in color.
