104:88 The Ancient Chinese World by Kleeman & Barrett

Finally got Matthew to finish this one. Not sure why it took him so long but that meant I could finally zip through it. It's been interesting reading these now as Chris is also doing World History for high school. He's using a UC a-g approved text book and I can't believe how skimpy it is compared to these Jr. High texts. It really makes me appreciate the richness, even in it's simplicity, of these books. I think my favorite part in this one (besides all the wonderful pictures of artifacts) was learning how the Chinese have adapted Buddhism to fit their beliefs.
