When Daxil and Faroula slip into a pair of mysterious leather sandals, they embark on a whirlwind journey along history’s greatest trade routes. From the Silk Road bazaars of Xi’an to the salt mines of the Sahara, and the libraries of Timbuktu, they meet caravan leaders, historians, and mapmakers who reveal how cultures connected through silk, spices, and stories. Through cuneiform tablets, pearly olive presses, and star-guided Bedouin nights, the siblings uncover the living threads that weave our world together. Bursting with adventure, humor, and heart, Paths of Living History shows young readers that the past lives on every footstep we take.
