What's Inside

Not only will kiddos learn about these amazing inventions, but they will also participate in the original creative process themselves, like building a telescope using the same rudimentary methods used by the inventors. From ancient to modern inventions, kids will discover the revolutionary ideas and processes used to create the foundation for our modern lives.

I have been enthusiastic about Honest History’s endeavor and the products it has yielded for several years now. We are grandparents in our late 70’s with 7 adult children and their families totaling 18 grandchildren. We share in the issues of the magazines and most recently purchased the hardcover books. The quality of content with superb and TRUTHFUL explanations coupled with outstanding layout and visuals continue to be compelling, particularly for 7 of our grandchildren. We are living through difficult times in our culture just now. But to offer children this “timeless” product of facts and history is an extraordinary offering to the children and they read and review the issues over and over. Heartfelt gratitude to the founders and staff of Honest History. Eric and Eugenia Funk, Bozeman MT
