History Is Inventive: A Book by Honest History
- Description
A children’s book exploring inventions (and their inventors) that changed the world. Discover the true stories behind amazing creations, from the Antikythera mechanism, an ancient analogue computer, to the Baghdad Battery. On every page, young historians will learn something new about each invention through engaging stories accompanied by beautiful illustrations and design—you may even find you have the next Charles Drew on your hands after they put the book down.
Why We Love This Brand
Honest History was founded by Brooke and her husband David Knight who always wanted to work at a kids’ magazine that combined equal parts creativity, education and honest storytelling. They believe in honest journalism because they believe that what children read leaves a lasting impression. They only use verified academic sources and spend many hours of research for each topic. They also believe in telling stories that are left untold in many traditional classrooms, like the issue on the Chinese female pirate, Cheng I Sao.
