Review: Heroes of History (Books 1-5)
Heroes of History (Books 1-5)
By: Janet Benge, Geoff Benge
Heroes of History (Books 1-5) is the beginning set to a wonderful biography series that brings history to life. Each book in the series covers the life of a Hero. Each book caught our attention and begged to be finished. The little ones didn't want me to stop reading to them. The older children found them interesting and I even over heard them talking about a couple things they read that they thought were pretty cool. Pretty cool from teenage girls is amazing!
As a homeschooling mom, I like that they have a study guide that can be used to direct a more in depth study. I didn't use them with this review, but will be ordering them with the next five books in the series.
These would make a wonderful gift for a young family to read together. The heroes these books center around lived fascinating lives. They were responsible for changes in the course of our history.
- George Washington Carver: From Slave to Scientist
- Abraham Lincoln: A New Birth of Freedom
- Meriwether Lewis: Off the Edge of the Map
- George Washington: True Patriot
- William Penn: Liberty and Justice for All

I’m so happy I found your review of Heroes of history books. I think my grandson would really enjoy these books. Children love to learn if given the chance, these books sound fun and informative. Thanks!
These books are great in teaching your young children about history without it being boring or too complicated for them to comprehend. I wished I would’ve paid more attention to history while in school, as I never realized just how important history affects your how you perceive your present day and future.
Thanks for this review, we are a household of voracious readers, so knowing another great source of books is appreciated! I am especially interested because these sound interesting and fun for kids!
