Bede's History of ME

by Ned Bustard, Amy Clark (Contributor)

Bede is a timeline ... who strongly resembles a ball of yarn. This loveable character introduces young children to the basics of history in a fun way-once a week, all year long. Topics include: how a timeline works, family history, the history of holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, etc.), the history of toys, the history of sports, and more. Even a little Church history is included! A clear way to teach the importance of timelines and how God works in time. A second volume is available, too. This is a home run.

Bede's History is well thought out and does a great job at teaching the concept of timelines. Our favorite activity was collecting family pictures and making a huge timeline out on our clothesline!

I bought this book thinking Veritas Press was actually recommended by classical educators. I didn’t hate it, but probably wouldn’t recommend it.
