HALF and HALF books (1/2 Fiction-1/2 Non-Fiction) present a great fiction story, followed by non-fiction content that relates to the story. A perfect bridge for readers to cross from story to facts!... This description may be from another edition of this product.
As the series title indicates, this book is half fiction and half non-fiction. The first half of the book consists of a 3 chapter story about with 2 Cro-Magnon children as the main characters. The stories include hunting, cave painting, and the taming of a dog. Of course, the details of the story could be criticized and argued about. No one really thinks the first dog was tamed like this. But the stories are a friendly way to introduce children to early humans. That we don't know how these things really happen or that there are a number of theories can be discussed in connection with the second half of the book. The second half of the book is non-fiction about the Cro-Magnon people. At the end is an art activity. The entire book is heavily illustrated on heavy glossy paper. My only complaint is that this isn't a whole history series. There is one other history Half and Half book on ancient Egypt. I would like to see the timeline of history covered with these books.
