All of Us: A Young People's History of the World

Praise

“An illustrated history of human civilisation, All Of Us breezes through the millennia and celebrates our collective successes while also enumerating our many failures. Wars come and go, empires rise and fall, but our race’s enduring achievement is, it seems, that we’re still surviving and even thriving. Excellent educational reading.” —James Lovegrove, Financial Times‘s ‘Best Books of 2019: Picture Books’

“Yvan Pommaux and Christophe Ylla-Somers’s All of Us: A Young People’s History of the World . . . is packed with information for young inquisitive minds. Beginning with ‘vapor’ turning into rain and the rain filling ‘the hollows of the earth,’ All of Us provides a highly illustrated account of the ‘history of the world.’ Told as a linear narrative, with events, actions and individuals highlighted throughout, children can read from front to back or dip in and out depending on their mood.” —Shelf Awareness

“A perfectly balanced book showing how humans have made the world in which they live and ensuring that there is a balance of facts representing all countries and not favouring one over the other. Unique, clever and highly readable.” —Armadillo
