The Vikings by Sally Hewitt
This fully illustrated series aims to bring to life the way people lived in different countries long ago. Each title concentrates on one particular country and tells of how people lived hundreds and even thousands of years ago, what they wore, what they did for entertainment, how they fought theire battles and much, much more. Each topic in the book is reinforced with a lively activity for the reader to make crafts and historical objects they can really use!. The easy-to-follow steps enable the reader to use already-learned skills to recreate artifacts that were once part of everyday life of bygone times in far-off lands.
Ruth Thomson is an award-winning educational author (with an MA in Museum and Gallery learning) , who specialises in writing books on art and history. Her art books include Grisly & Gruesome, Saints and Looking at Paintings for the National Gallery, London, a short biography of Georgia O'Keeffe and several hands-on art packs for Tate galleries. She has also co-written Posters and Propaganda in Wartime, published in conjunction with the Imperial War Museum. Her history books include a series about Victorian childhood and books about Plains Indians and Aztecs. Ruth's interest in Terezin was sparked during research for an educational pack on Holocaust art for the London Gallery of Jewish Art. The gallery owns a powerful series of prints by Leo Haas, one of the artists featured in the book, and Ruth became intrigued to find out more about the place that had inspired them. As well as writing educational books, Ruth travels widely, collecting recycled artefacts, which she has shown in bespoke exhibitions at major British museums and galleries for the past 7 years. In her spare time, Ruth enjoys long-distance walking, stone carving and reading modern American literature.
