Resumen del Editor
Two manuscripts in one audiobook:
- World War 1 for Kids: A Captivating Guide to the First World War
- World War 2 for Kids: A Captivating Guide to the Second World War
In the first part of this audiobook, you will discover:
- How it all started because of just one man
- Why soldiers spent most of their time sitting around in wet, muddy ditches
- The new inventions that changed the face of war forever
- How dogs, horses, pigeons, and even goldfish helped in the war
- Soldiers—poets that didn’t know it
- Why you could go to jail if you refused to fight
- Boy Scout and Girl Guide spies?
- The longest, biggest, and bloodiest battles
- Only twelve years old and going to war!
- How the "war to end all wars" may have actually caused the Second World War
In the second part of this audiobook, you will discover:
- Why were children in Britain sent to live hundreds of miles away with strangers?
- Could you budget and enjoy your favorite foods on wartime rations?
- Why the first atomic bomb was used and how it ended the war for good.
- How one fifteen-year-old girl’s diary won a Pulitzer Prize and has sold over 30 million copies.
- Why some people had no choice but to fight, even if they didn’t want to.
- Being a dictator wasn’t Adolf Hitler’s first choice of career. What do you think he first tried (and failed) to be?
- Why you couldn’t say “hamburger” in the United States during WWII.
- Could you make a great escape from a prison camp?
- Thirty years later—the soldiers who refused to believe the war was over!
- Girl power! How women helped the war effort.

Mary Lennox starts her life as an unhappy victim of circumstance. After the loss of her parents, she moves to rural Yorkshire to live with a distant uncle where she resents the wildness of the countryside. At first, she struggles to find a place in this new existence. Although unsure about her surroundings and its occupants, through the gentle guidance of the maid she gradually becomes interested in the story of Mrs Craven, who apparently used to spend her time in a garden at the house, the key to which has vanished.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 4,594
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 17,857
Eve looks like an ordinary 12-year-old girl, but there’s nothing ordinary about her. She has no last name. No parents or guardian. She’s on the run from a dangerous and secretive organization that will stop at nothing to track her down. And most astonishing of all: she’s a robot, a product of Eden Laboratories. When Eve discovers the truth, she realizes everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie. Eve manages to escape, fleeing the lab, the only home she’s ever known.
