Exclusive: Papercutz Magical History Tour 3-in-1 | News
Today we have an exclusive piece of news from Papercutz: They are collecting the first three books in their middle-grade Magical History Tour series into a single chunky volume, Magical History Tour 3 in 1. The new book includes stories about the Great Pyramid, the Great Wall of China, and oil, all told by two children, Annie and Nico, who travel through time to view history first hand. In her review of the first two volumes, Johanna Draper Carlson applauded the way the books pack a lot of information into a small format and don’t shy away from some of the more unpleasant truths of history.
Papercutz has published a dozen of these little (5″ x 6.5″) 48-page books priced at $6.99 apiece and covering topics as diverse as the Plague, samurai, and Albert Einstein. With 144 pages for $14.99, the three-in-one book offers the advantages of the originals at a slightly better price for the amount of material included. The book is rated for ages 7-12 and will go on sale on November 7, 2023.
