Ladybird Histories: The Great Fire of London



Topic-based history titles to use at home or to support school work

The Great Fire of London is part of the Ladybird Histories series introducing core topics from history. Children will learn about how the fire started, why it spread so rapidly and how it was eventually put out.

All the facts are presented in a clear and engaging way to explain the events of a particular time in history and the order in which they occurred.

Each title in the series focuses on the key characters of the time and features colourful illustrations, a timeline and a simple glossary. Places to visit and practical activities are also included.

The importance of evidence in history is shown using extracts from writers such as Samuel Pepys and John Evelyn.
