Lonely Planet Kids uses illustrations and flaps to link history to places on the map. The book offers a visual way into how people have built, used and reshaped urban environments through the centuries.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Content.<\/strong> Among others, you will find ancient Thebes and present-day Luxor, Constantinople and Istanbul, Viking-age Aarhus and the modern port city, Tenochtitlan and Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro at its founding, and London around the time of the Great Fire. By lifting the flaps, the reader can compare different layers of time and see what has been added or changed. Facts and images show how history has left its mark on cities.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>Who is this book suitable for?<\/strong> The book suits children who enjoy history, maps and details to explore. The English text can be read alone or together with an adult, taking time to compare images and talk about the differences. You can choose a single city and see what the child recognizes, or follow a theme such as buildings, rivers and city life across several places. The hardback edition also makes a good gift idea for a curious reader. It can be used at home before a trip or as a starting point for seeing a familiar city with new questions about how it once was.    <\/p>\n<p><strong>From inspiration to your own plan.<\/strong> Browse together and let the child choose a topic that sparks curiosity. Take your time to discuss the pictures and discoveries, and see what questions they lead to. An English book can be read in small sections with an adult, allowing both content and new words to be absorbed. You can return to favorite pages and let new interests determine what you read next. Use the book as a starting point for your own conversations, ideas, and experiences at the family&#8217;s pace. It is beneficial to pause and let the child share what was most interesting in what you just explored.     <\/p>\n<p><strong>About the edition.<\/strong> English book, published 2020. 24 pages.
