In 1911, the Inca People were all but forgotten. Then Hiram Bingham travelled to the jungles of Peru. There, he made amazing discoveries of Inca ruins from hundreds of years ago. Who were the Incas? How did their tiny tribe turn into a mighty empire? And why did they disappear? This 48-page book contains no more than 2,000 words so as not to overwhelm struggling readers. Each page is supported by colourful images to support comprehension. Also includes content vocabulary defined in context and repeated in a glossary at the back of each book.
