Written for children aged 7-9, these six paperback readers cover the Egyptians, Tudors, Vikings, Romans, the Stone Age and Greeks, retelling real events through the eyes of children who lived through them. Combining short chapters, a lively narrative voice and genuine historical detail, the set is designed to build reading confidence while feeding a growing curiosity about the past, turning factual history into a page-turning adventure for home, classroom or library shelves. About the Books: Each of the six titles in the Terrible True Tales set drops readers into a different chapter of world history, told from a young, relatable point of view rather than a dry list of dates and rulers. Egyptians covers pyramid building, mummification and life along the Nile, while Tudors explores the drama of Henry VIII's court alongside the struggles of ordinary Tudor families. Vikings follows raids, longship voyages and settlement life, and Romans looks at empire, gladiators and daily life across the provinces through Roman children's eyes. The Stone Age carries readers back to the beginnings of human history, showing how early people hunted, made tools and created the first art, while Greeks introduces mythology, democracy and the Olympic Games through stories set in Athens and Sparta. Terry Deary's trademark blend of humour and hard fact keeps young readers engaged, while manageable chapter lengths and age-appropriate vocabulary support developing readers moving on from early reading schemes. Each book focuses on a single civilisation, so the set works equally well read cover to cover or dipped into title by title, making it a flexible resource for topic work, project research or free r
