So much interactive fun!

I got this for me and my nieces for a short road trip. I learned so much myself. It was fun to do and enjoy something useful together versus them on phones or tablets melting their brains. Love!

My grandkids were glued to every word!

As a grandmother always on the lookout for stories that both entertain and educate, I stumbled upon a gem: "Interesting Stories for Curious Kids." It's not every day you find a book that makes history and bizarre facts as captivating as a bedtime fairy tale. This audiobook became our go-to during visits, transforming our afternoons into journeys of discovery and amazement.
Each story is a doorway to the past, revealing the odd, the unexpected, and the outright unbelievable. The stories caught my grandkids' imaginations, leaving them wide-eyed and eager for more. This collection is a testament to the fact that learning isn't confined to the classroom—it's alive in the stories we share.

Fun and Educational

This book is loaded with fun, interesting facts for kids or, in my case, adults. I actually learned a lot from this book. The way the author explained these historical facts made me want more. Just to give an example, I have always been fascinated with WWII. There is a factual story in the book about WWII I'll bet you didn't know. If you like pirates, you'll love this story about a famous TV pirate we all know. I highly recommend this book.

Very engaging for kids

I think this audiobook is fantastic for youngsters who find school textbooks not interesting since it makes ancient history exciting and exciting. The stories cover a wide variety of topics, from odd occurrences to astounding human accomplishments. For parents who want to keep their children occupied during lengthy car or airline flights, this audiobook is ideal.
