History

Two manuscripts in one audiobook:

• World War 1 for Kids: A Captivating Guide to the First World War • World War 2 for Kids: A Captivating Guide to the Second World War

In the first part of this audiobook, you will discover:

• How it all started because of just one man • Why soldiers spent most of their time sitting around in wet, muddy ditches • The new inventions that changed the face of war forever • How dogs, horses, pigeons, and even goldfish helped in the war • Soldiers—poets that didn’t know it • Why you could go to jail if you refused to fight • Boy Scout and Girl Guide spies? • The longest, biggest, and bloodiest battles • Only twelve years old and going to war! • How the "war to end all wars" may have actually caused the Second World War

In the second part of this audiobook, you will discover:

• Why were children in Britain sent to live hundreds of miles away with strangers? • Could you budget and enjoy your favorite foods on wartime rations? • Why the first atomic bomb was used and how it ended the war for good. • How one fifteen-year-old girl’s diary won a Pulitzer Prize and has sold over 30 million copies. • Why some people had no choice but to fight, even if they didn’t want to. • Being a dictator wasn’t Adolf Hitler’s first choice of career. What do you think he first tried (and failed) to be? • Why you couldn’t say “hamburger” in the United States during WWII. • Could you make a great escape from a prison camp? • Thirty years later—the soldiers who refused to believe the war was over! • Girl power! How women helped the war effort.
