Famous Figures of Ancient Times by CAthy Diez-Luckie
Movable Paper Figures to Cut, Color and Assemble
Grade: elementary - 8
Summary: Highly recommended by Susan Wise Bauer in The Well Trained Mind and by Rob Shearer of Greenleaf Press, these are the ultimate timeline figures (of course, you can use them for many other projects or just for fun!)
Make History Come Alive in Ancient Egypt, Greece, China, Rome, and Jerusalem!
History has never been so much fun! Yes, these action figures really move! All you need is this book, a hole punch, and easy-to-use fasteners for assembly. Move their arms and legs, use their swords and shields and act out the real stories of history or make up your own and travel through time with moving figures!
Children will begin to love studying the great men and women of the past. Aristotle, Julius Caesar, Cyrus the Great, Jesus, and others come to life as children create their moving figures.
Famous Figures of Ancient Times includes a short biography of each historic figure... from Narmer, who united Upper and Lower Egypt, to Augustine, a leader of the Church at the fall of the Ancient Roman Empire.
Book Details: high quality cardstock
Condition: binder with plastic sheeting in like new condition.
Please Keep the following in mind before Leaving Feedback
1. Please note I give the overall condition of the book and then note anything that may be noteworthy. "Determining a Book's Condition" is posted within each listing.
2. In regards to shipping: I ship within 3 days of purchase unless you ask for upgraded shipping or email and ask me to get this out sooner. Please don't hold me responsible for orders that arrive slowly due to the postal system. Please note the date of postage on your package to determine if item has indeed shipped within the 3 days promised. You will also receive an email from eBay and Paypal with date of shipment and tracking.
3. I try to charge as little as possible for shipping. I charge by exact weight, but I do have a small handling fee, between 25 cents to $1.00 depending upon material used. I use new boxes for heavier orders and new poly-mailers for lighter items. Everything is bubble-wrapped. Shipping peanuts are used, if necessary, so that books do not bounce around. Every once in a while I will ship in a used box if it is still sturdy. When I do so, I do not add on for the box. I also try to remember to have the amount of postage printed on each shipment so that you can check it for yourself as compared to what you have been charged. Mistakes do happen and when someone has been overcharged, I always make sure to refund via Paypal.
4. As for communication, I send an email to every buyer once an item ships. If you do not receive one, it is probably going to SPAM. Also, note I leave feedback the same day I ship, which is another way I communicate to you. Finally, Paypal or eBay will send you an email with your shipping information. Otherwise, if you have any questions, I try to respond within 24 hours.
