Brittany: As an avid history enthusiast and a parent, I am always on the lookout for engaging and educational books that can captivate my children's interest in the subject. "Great Battles for Boys: Bunker Hill to WWI" exceeded my expectations on all fronts, making it an absolute gem in our family library.
From the moment I picked up this book, I was impressed with the attention to detail and the beautifully presented information. The author, Joe Giorello, has a remarkable talent for simplifying complex historical events and presenting them in a manner that is both informative and accessible to young readers. This book is perfectly suited for boys aged 8-12, but it can certainly be enjoyed by readers of all ages.
The book takes readers on an incredible journey through some of the most significant battles in history, covering a wide range of conflicts from the American Revolution to World War I. Each battle is meticulously described, allowing young readers to visualize and understand the strategies, key figures, and outcomes of these momentous events. The inclusion of maps, illustrations, and photographs further enhances the reading experience, making it all the more...

d call: My previous reluctant reader is now a big reader. This series has helped. Both my boys 9 & 12 have enjoyed this series. Another series in addition to this, if looking to expand once you have all the titles, is Nathan's Hales Hazerdous Tales.

GT Family: I’m a mom of two boys and one girl. I would first like to address the people complaining about the title saying “for boys.” The author has addressed this too and it’s part of the reason why I purchased this book. Boys are falling behind in school and reading. Not sure why some people are allowed to review these books when they haven’t read them or purchased them. Do your research if you have a boy in your life. I would also like to point out that bookstores frequently have shelves dedicated to girls about strong women, strong girls, etc and yes boys can read books in those sections just like girls can read these Great Battles for Boys books.
My 8yo son loves history and is devouring this book. I highly recommend. This book is really exciting and I (mom) am enjoying it too. We use it for read aloud time and independent reading. As soon as I finish this review I will be ordering more in the series, per my sons request.
