In the best tradition of storytelling, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC chronicles one of the most dramatic centuries in history. It's a panoramic account of a world in motion and transformation, from the Wright Brothers' first flight to Neil Armstrong's walk on the moon and much more, conveniently organized by decade. Essays by prominent historians and vivid portraits (600 photographs and illustrations) of memorable men, women and events, along with maps, charts and timelines make this comprehensive volume informative, entertaining and highly readable.

"We chose Sonlight because Amelia (5) and Edith (3) have always loved reading," writes Amanda F of Stockdale, NC. "Our Sonlight boxes arrived, and Amelia immediately began to flip through her new books. Her curiosity made her eager to start kindergarten! The program has beyond lived up to my expectations. I love that all the hard work has already been done for me; I simply open my Instructor's Guide and go! Amelia's 3-year-old sister Edith loves participating in school with Amelia. Science has been their favorite subject because of the experiments, and Edith feels so grown up doing the same assignments as Amelia."

Thanks to Sonlight's training, my daughter Rachel is in the habit of integrating everything she learns into the 'big picture' of time and place. Before she can read anything, she looks at her timeline to understand where the story takes place in the context of history. She'll also find the story's location on the map. She loves to peruse The Timeline Book [RR120] from beginning to end. I feel she has a great grasp on the big picture. In her fourth year of Sonlight, Rachel (7) uses Google to locate where Little Pear (from Core B) took place.

"I love that Sonlight allows the whole family to actively learn together," says Emily G of Mount Pleasant, WI. "It's awesome to see what the younger kids pick up on! They're always watching and learning." Here, Eleanor (3, Preschool) took a break from playing dress-up to "teach" her sister Madelein (8, HBL D) some geography!
