Review: Not suited to kids under 13 but wonderful - The book itself is wonderful. The problem is if you're looking for educational material for a 9 and a 10 year old and the reviews stated that this could be used for that group. This material would be a stretch for 11-12 year olds, led alone the difficulty level that was assigned to it. I would say 13(+). Review: A must read for all the ages - Don't get fooled by the title. You (people who think they are adults) might be needing this more. If you reside here or have interest in India history, this book gives an excellent broad look into it. Replete with some anecdotes and Did You Knows, it makes for a very engaging read. A book which will be enjoyed by a 10 and a 100 year old alike. NOTE: I did spot few factual errors in the book. I hope the publishers will correct them in the next re-print/edition. Eg.: As far as I know, the central hall chamber in which the speech 'tryst with destiny' was delivered is still that very central hall even now and that has not become the Lok Sabha. The chamber for Lok Sabha was always different. ## Features - Rupa Publications India - Proper binding cover makes it durable - Safe for children - Travel friendly packaging ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #42,301 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #15 in History & Criticism of Children's & YA Literature #527 in Children's Books on History | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,000 Reviews | ## Images ![A Children's History of India - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LL3mujdsL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not suited to kids under 13 but wonderful *by A***1 on 15 August 2025* The book itself is wonderful. The problem is if you're looking for educational material for a 9 and a 10 year old and the reviews stated that this could be used for that group. This material would be a stretch for 11-12 year olds, led alone the difficulty level that was assigned to it. I would say 13(+). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for all the ages *by D***H on 14 August 2019* Don't get fooled by the title. You (people who think they are adults) might be needing this more. If you reside here or have interest in India history, this book gives an excellent broad look into it. Replete with some anecdotes and Did You Knows, it makes for a very engaging read.

The chamber for Lok Sabha was always different. ### ⭐ Inaccurate Depiction of British Rule in India *by A***R on 14 January 2026* This book depicts a completely one-sided, biased view of Britisih rule in India. It ignores the fact that the British unfied a country of 565 independent principalities into one country through the introduction of a unified system of law, education and communications. Less than 2,000 civil service officers governed the affairs of over 300 million people. ## Frequently Bought Together - A CHILDREN'S HISTORY OF INDIA (PB) - The History of India for Children - (Vol. 1): From Prehistory To The Sultanates [Paperback] Archana Garodia Gupta,Shruti Garodia - The History of India for Children - (Vol. 2): From The Mughals To The Present --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/253371751-a-childrens-history-of-india](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/253371751-a-childrens-history-of-india) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-11-12*
