Little Explorers: Scotland Then and Now (Lift the Flap, See the Past) - Board Book

by Louise Forshaw (Illustrator)

Turn back time and introduce little explorers to Scotland's past. With double fold-out sturdy pages, children can discover what some of Scotland's most famous historical places look like now, then reveal how they might have looked hundreds, or even thousands, of years ago.

Explore Orkney's Skara Brae with Stone Age villagers, command Urquhart Castle with Robert the Bruce, return to Jarlshof in Shetland after a Viking raid, have a feast at Stirling Castle with King James V, guard the Antonine Wall with Roman soldiers, and try to capture Edinburgh Castle with the Jacobites.

Published in partnership with experts at Historic Environment Scotland, the bright and exciting illustrations are packed full of historical detail helping young children to learn as they explore.
