More than 3,600 years ago, the Shang Dynasty arose beside the Yellow River in China. The Shang people lived in north east China for almost 600 years. They were expert bronze workers, they invented a calendar, and their writing led to today's Chinese writing. The carved bones they left behind guided archaeologists to discover much about their culture. Learn more about the Shang! 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.
