Many middle school students love to browse through the books in this
series in much the same way they browse through the Guinness World Book
of Records. The format of these books makes them especially appealing
to reluctant readers. While certainly not a complete or scholarly
overview, these books are great jump-off points and interest generators. Our library has several titles in the series so be sure to check out books in the series all starting out with the title
You Wouldn't Want to....
- ...Be a Crusader; ...Be a Medieval Knight; ....Be a World War II Pilot; ....Be in a Medieval Dungeon; ....Be an American Colonist; ....Sail on the Mayflower; .....Live in a Medieval Castle
as well as others in this series if you want to check out the most interesting history in an enjoyable format.
My rating--a great starting point for those curious about history(and they're fun!)
