Beautiful Feet Homeschool History CurriculumOur family has read many of the Genevieve Foster books while using the Beautiful Feet homeschool curriculum. We especially liked The World of Augustus Caesar and The World of John Smith. Foster has a unique pattern for these books. They are written in a chronological format over the course of a famous person’s life such as Christopher Columbus, John Smith, or George Washington. But unlike other books, Foster covers the highlights of world history by telling in story format what else is happening in the world during the lifetime of the book’s namesake. Like no other books, these give us a sense of what happens chronologically in history, weaving the facts of famous people and nations into a beautiful tapestry story.

I have always tried to incorporate a timeline in our history studies. I like the way the Foster books include sketches of the people and events that occurred during a certain period of time. I often make copies of these pages to include in our timeline creations. Foster does such an excellent job to give readers a sense of the way events overlap in history. I have never seen any other book or teaching source that does this as effectively.
