About this listen

Did you know that Africa is the birthplace of humankind?

In this audiobook, you will travel through the vast continent of Africa. Journey back to ancient times, and discover one of the earliest and most famous civilizations, ancient Egypt. We will then travel through the Middle Ages, discovering some of the largest empires in Africa to ever exist. Discover how Africa has shaped the world as we know it and how the transatlantic slave trade led to the largest, long-distance, forced migration of people in history.

Finally, you will learn how Africa was colonized and how the African people regained their independence.

History will come alive in this interactive audiobook filled with fun facts, and engaging activities.

Here is just a small sample of the amazing things you will learn about Africa:

  • Ancient Egypt’s incredible inventions, pharaohs, and architecture.
  • The Egyptians weren’t the only African nation to build pyramids. Find out what other African civilizations built more pyramids in one town than there were in the whole of Egypt!
  • The introduction of Christianity and Islam and how they impacted tribal religions.
  • How a huge monument was dismantled and taken to Rome for seventy years before being returned to its original site.
  • Was Africa really a “dark continent” with no history in medieval times?
  • The first country to introduce modern mental healthcare and free healthcare isn’t where you think!
  • Africa was home to the richest person to have ever lived! Learn more about him and how much gold he gave away!
  • Discover who the real-life Lion King was!
  • The horrendous transatlantic slave trade and the steps to ending the practice of slavery.

If you are looking for an audiobook that will hold your child’s interest, then you have come to the right place. Buy now and see for yourself!
