Vlad and the Florence Nightingale Adventure

Description

This book is one of several titles in the A Flea in History series and comes from Reading Riddle. They are illustrated stories, each with a related activity book, telling of Vlad the flea’s adventures in history, everything from adventures involving Tutankhamun’s tomb, the Mary Rose and the First World War. Each page is filled with lovingly created illustrations and large sized text. Telling the story from the point of view of the flea allows for the starting of conversations around why Vlad is seeing and hearing certain things around him. The book was researched at the Florence Nightingale Museum and is an excellent way to introduce children to this subject.

The magnificent Reading Riddle website is filled with extra content linked to this book, along with teacher’s guides, parent’s guides, videos, craft activities and much more. However, while the website adds a lot of value to this book, it can be read and enjoyed as a stand-alone picture book, with lovely illustrations and a story which is informative and fun.
