Mixes facts and fiction to engage children in history; world war one.
What was World War One really like? Step into the boots of 14-year-old James Marchbank and experience the most important, incredible, peculiar, poignant, remarkable and revolting bits of the war.
Inspired by the real-life diary of a Scottish boy soldier, each easy-to-read chapter mixes James's story with timelines, letters, diagrams and illustrations to create a fact-tastic account of the First World War, which is both fun and emotionally engaging for younger readers.
Take a journey through time to find out…
- Why rat hunting became a popular hobby in the trenches
- How parachuting pigeons helped at war
- Why a really good friend would rub whale oil on your feet
- What it actually felt like to be a teenager at war
A Secret Diary of the First World War is the first in a new brilliant series, which blends together intriguing facts and fascinating fiction to bring the most exciting, gruesome and crucial moments of Scottish history alive for young readers.
