4 Stars Excellent resource for the classroom!
I’ve used this book in my 7th grade Middle Ages project with great success. The images in the book are literally jaw-droppingly gorgeous, but not too hard for students to use in making larger “windows.” The paper is heavy-duty, can be easly removed from the book and taped to an overhead for tracing. They should last a long time. The only “problems” are that the pictures aren’t numbered so matching them to the source list at the back of the book is tricky - I just number them myself before cutting out. Also, I would have liked to see a sturdier cover for the pages. Once cut out, they tend to get bent. If you want kids to work on research with a project to enhance their papers, this is a good source or if you have kids whose main focus is on a project, this book is invaluable.
