Product description

A book to explain the Château de Chambord to children

Quelle Histoire and the Domaine national de Chambord have collaborated to create this small illustrated book, ideal for introducing children to history in a fun way. From François I's initial project to the contributions of Louis XIV, the book reveals the major stages in the creation of the famous Renaissance edifice, as well as the people who shaped it.

A chronological frieze, a portrait gallery and a look at the methods and materials used make it easy to understand. The audio version of the book (available free of charge) also helps children learn to read.

Finally, children learn while having fun with a game and quiz to test their knowledge.
