OOH...I had big time issues with A Child's History of the World. I was really thrown for a loop when the story of Robin Hood was presented as a historic event. At first I thought to myself, "hmmm...I always thought that was a story...learn something new every day". Then I did some research online and felt really dumb for believing that it might actually be true.
And don't get me started on the racial stuff in that book.
I am glad to hear we're not the only ones who didn't like miquon. All I hear are rave reviews. It had my dd so frustrated and confused (with first grade math).
