London (See Inside): 1

This book makes learning about about London easier and is interactive

Usborne books are pretty good quality

Bought this for my 7 Yr old granddaughter for her school project. She loves it and very proudly took it to school with her. It's attractive and informative and well suited to her age range

We have several of these Usborne 'See Inside' books, including ones on Science, Houses Long Ago, Space and How Things Work. These books are excellent in providing kids with lots of information in an easy to digest and fun way. My daughters are 6 and 10 and they both use these books for getting information for school work as well as just for a fun reading experience. I would recommend this series of books to anyone with children (and I have learnt a fair bit from them too!)The 'See Inside London' book shows a broad sweep of how London has evolved over the years and gives information on important times in the history of London, like the great fire and the plague. There are so many children's books on London but I think this one makes the facts interesting and accessible, especially as you can choose how many flaps to lift and therefore how much info you have to read. There is a good sprinkling of humour in the book too, which is effective in keeping the chldrens' interest long enough for them to learn lots of stuff about history.

Bought it for two granddaughters they thought it was their favourite book I had purchased

I came across this book recently whilst browsing Amazon to get ideas for my daughter's 6th birthday. This had a few good reviews and as she loves reading and books I took a chance. She absolutely loves this book and has already read it cover to cover twice in the few days that she has had it. She can now regale me with interesting facts such as the tudors used to eat swan's brains! I think this is one that will keep her interested for a long time - I was a bit doubtful about the board book format and worried that she would think a board book a bit beneath her at six but it is definitely a book for older children - I guess it needs to be in this format for the lift the flap aspect. I am going to be ordering another copy for my nephew's birthday in September. Highly recommended

My daughter is in year 2 (age 6) and has recently done a topic on the fire of London. She was delighted to receive this book. It is a very sturdy hardback book packed with information. The illustrations are very detailed and there are flaps, quite hidden on all of the pages. Each time she read the book she found more flaps with further information hidden underneath. The contents are Ancient London, The Middle Ages, Tudor Times, Fire and Plague, After the Fire, Smoke and Fog, Under Attack and London Today. On a recent visit to London she was practically able to give us a history lesson due to this book!

My granddaughter was thrilled with the book. She is seven and very interested in London and history so this was the perfect book for her. A delightful book with an abundance of flaps to lift and things to discover. Highly recommend!

Offert à ma fille de 6 ans bilingue avant de partir à Londres. Elle adore les livres à rabats qu'on soulève pour y découvrir ce qu'il y a caché en-dessous. Dans ce livre, nous sommes servis! Plein de rabats à soulever (personnellement je n'en ai jamais vu autant dans un livre) et c'est génial car pour parler du passé de la ville de Londres, ça dynamise et éveille complètement l'intérêt de l'enfant. Il y a beaucoup d'informations aussi donc c'est un livre à lire en plusieurs fois. De belles illustrations qui nous plongent véritablement dans le passé. Livre écrit en anglais. Livraison excellente.

My son loves it! Endlessly interesting book! So beautiful and detailed illustrations!
