Making money 960ce ChinaThe Chinese were short of copper for coins, and people were fed up with carrying heavy coins. So the Song government issued paper notes called jiaozi, the first bank notes. A jiaozi was a promise to pay.
In the 10th century, the Vikings were a pretty dynamic bunch. They sailed to North America and settled there. They made northern France their own. They set themselves up in Russia and made that their own. They even got to be the Byzantine emperor’s personal guards!

Real-life Monsters
Wild Thing! is a beautifully illustrated and fun practical guide to enjoying the great outdoors. We look at predicting the weather, navigating by the stars, making a shelter, tracking wildlife and many more fun and interesting projects to inspire outdoor adventures.
Realistic artwork shows mighty prehistoric beasts real-size in dramatic modern settings. These beasts existed from 260 million years ago: before, during and after the dinosaurs. Absolutely fascinating and equally terrifying – a great read for any dinosaur fan.
