About this book

This book offers an inclusive and wide-ranging look at some highlights from Welsh history. From the Romans to Hywel the Good and his laws, and from Lucy Thomas the Coal Owner to John Charles and the Wales football team, this book has a slice of history that will appeal to all young readers. The layout of the books means that different topics are introduced through a first-person narrative such as the voices of Henry Tudor to Patti Flynn. This is followed by facts that offer a fuller picture of this period in history and an explanation as to why it is important. These carefully chosen facts make the link between the past to the present clear for the reader. The attractive layout and illustrations of the book, as well as a section in the back that discusses what exactly history means, makes this a fantastic read for children.
