THE BIG QUESTIONS: WHERE DID CIVILIZATION COME FROM?
What if the story you've been told is only the tiniest chapter of human history?
The Big Questions: Where Did Civilization Come From? is a children's history book (ages 5+) that turns the origins of civilization into a cinematic adventure of discovery-from the first cities and builders to lost ruins, star-aligned monuments, and the clues still being uncovered today.
Written by interdisciplinary psychologist Ethan Solace, this beautifully remastered journey explores how humans went from wandering the land... to building worlds. Along the way, it invites children to ask the most powerful question of all:
What else don't we know yet?
Inside this "ancient civilizations for kids" adventure, children will explore: -
What makes a civilization (food, homes, teamwork, leaders, writing)
-
Ancient discoveries that changed what we thought we knew (including Göbekli Tepe)
-
Unseen histories hidden under forests and time (including ancient Amazon settlements)
-
A world of builders-how monuments were made without modern machines
-
Clues from the sky-how ancient people used the sun, moon, and stars
-
Lost cities and forgotten worlds-ruins swallowed by jungle, desert, and sea
-
How science pieces the past together, one clue at a time
Perfect for families, classrooms, homeschoolers, and libraries, this book is designed to spark big conversations while staying clear, accessible, and awe-filled for young minds.
History isn't finished... and the next discovery could be yours.
