Once Upon a Time is an anthology of bedtime stories featuring 15 true tales all the way from ancient Egypt and the Vikings up to the 20th century.
Each tale features an inspiring figure or hidden hero on an uplifting adventure. Kids will be awe-struck by:
· The ancient Chinese emperor whose sacrifice saved his people
· Holy Roman Empress Matilda who escaped her castle in 1142 and camouflaged herself as a ghost
· The enslaved man who escaped to freedom by "posting" himself in a box
The stories are accompanied by bonus information panels that give context to the stories and teach readers about the people, places, and history behind each tale. With a foiled, cloth effect cover featuring embossed artwork and a ribbon marker inside, Once Upon a Time has the timeless appeal of a beautifully illustrated bedtime book with the thrills of historical adventure and real-life stories.
