Description

Embark on an unforgettable time-traveling journey along one of the world's greatest landmarks: the Great Wall of China. Spanning 2,300 years and more than 13,000 miles (21,000km), this beautifully illustrated children's ebook reveals the fascinating story of the Great Wall and the individuals who helped build it. What started out as a frontier defense against northern tribes has, over time, become one of the seven great wonders of the world. Exquisite panoramic illustrations and engaging text bring to life key periods and turning points in the Great Wall's history - from the first defensive forts built in 215 BCE to its painstaking present-day restoration. Cutaway views reveal the interiors of important buildings. Children will also love searching for the adventurous time-traveling bird who appears in each of the illustrations. Perfect for parents and children to pore over together, The Great Wall Through Time makes a gorgeous gift or collector's item. Fun, interactive, and including details, it vividly presents Chinese history to children as they have never seen it before.
