tammyw Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 My dd12 just finished reading these two sets, The World in Ancient Times, AND The Medieval and Early Modern World (links below). https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-world-in-ancient-times-set-9780195222425?q=World%20in%20Ancient%20Times&lang=en&cc=il https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-medieval-and-early-modern-world-9780195221572?cc=us&lang=en& Any suggestions as to where to go next? She's a good reader and loves interesting history. We don't really use a curriculum for history, just lots of reading like the above plus novels, etc. I'm looking for lots of good suggestions or links for her (and that could include movie recommendations as well). TIA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Do you have a good library? Dd read from the Pages from History series, also from OUP. Here's a (partial ?) listing from amazon http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=pages+from+history And the list from OUP https://global.oup.com/academic/search?q=Pages+from+history&cc=il&lang=en Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, she did! She only read the US-specific volumes during our US history run-through last year (8th grade). She'll be using some other volumes next year when studying Comparative Government and Politics (am writing that syllabus now lol). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
