A WALK THROUGH HISTORY PUBLISHING HOUSE
New Titles Spring Catalogue 2022 (PDF)
A Walk Through History is a Russian publishing house specializing in children’s books, primarily nonfiction. We have created and designed more than 60 titles dedicated to various periods of history (ancient civilizations, the Middle Ages, the history of Russia) and other themes: railroads, football, theatre, alpinism, mathematics, space travel, paleontology, animals and plants. Founded in 2010, our publishing house has already established a reputation for its original historical series. All our books and games on history provide children with an insight into a specific historical era and give them the opportunity to understand and participate in the events of that time.
We believe that active participation is the key to effective learning. All books and games in our historical series are created with the help of professional historians and child psychologists in order to provide a genuine feel for a given historical era.
Our mission is to help parents to spend quality time with their kids by providing excellent books and games.
Our books have been translated into 8 languages and children are reading us in 9 countries: France, Germany, Italy, China, Vietnam, Taiwan, South Korea, Turkey and Ukraine.
Our books have regularly won the Russian Book Design and Russian Publishers Association Awards. In 2013 we won the KNIGURU Book prize, and in 2012 our Medieval Russia Series won the Book of the Year National Award.
