On this Day: A History of the World in 366 Days Hardcover

Each calendar date carries something that happened on it, and this book turns that idea into a year-long tour of world history. Entries run from January through December, with every day given a dated event, a short explanation and an image, so a reader can follow the calendar or jump straight to a birthday and see what shares it. Because the events are drawn from across centuries and continents, the connections between neighbouring spreads are deliberately unexpected. The hardcover runs 376 pages and suits readers of around nine to twelve. The way it is organised: • One historical event assigned to each of 366 calendar days • Events drawn from many periods and regions, not one timeline • 376 hardcover pages from DK Children • A format that works as a daily read across a whole year A gift-friendly reference for curious children and classrooms, published by DK Children and available at Boipoka.
