The Portal's books are created in a series that form a holistic historical picture for children. The series of picture books & Stories about History (for ages 4-7) is structurally similar to a puzzle. Each book in it is autonomous, but together they give children a holistic overview of historical periods, from the Stone Age to the present day. The series introduces history at the level of immersion in the flavour of the era through a vivid emotional picture, because children of this age have not yet formed an idea of time. The described realities, artefacts, and events are based on scientific facts and reconstructions.
The «Stories about History» series currently includes 11 books and is being supplemented. Other books in this series:
«Nobody's Khrul;Sashko Dermansky, «Olive Bone» by Olga Kupriyan, «The Arrow of the Steppe by Maria Artemenko, «Olenytsia runs along the sea by Olesya Mamchych, «Evina's Pits by Valya Vzduhlska, «Carol with Knights» by Olga Kupriyan, «In the Garden Sat a Wise Man» by Ania Khromova, «Ashik Omer» < Anastasia Levkova, «Election Day» by Sashko Dermansky, «Moon over Kinburn» by Yulia Stakhivska.
