From Then to Now: A Short History of the World (Governor General's Literary Awards Childrens Literature (Tex)
 “From Then to Now: A Short History of the World, by Christopher Moore, is a fascinating examination of the evolution of human civilization that is global in its span and inclusive in its outlook. The energetic narrative tells a story that rivals the very best fiction.” —Governor General Awards Jury’s Comment“…From Then to Now… offers young readers ages 10 and up a fascinating look at how individual societies have struggled to make their way despite the ravages of war, disease, slavery, natural disasters and our ever-expanding wealth of knowledge. It was an ambitious undertaking to condense that much history into a form young readers 10 and up can relate to, but Toronto author Christopher Moore and illustrator Andrej Krystoforski of Poland have done an excellent job.”–Waterloo Region RecordPRAISE FORCHAMPLAIN:“…[a] lushly pictorial biography, extended with archival artwork, maps, and artifacts ….”–School Library Journal“[N]ot only introduces readers to the explorer’s life story and the challenges he faced in North America, it also provides excellent background information ….”–BooklistPRAISE FORTHE BIG BOOK OF CANADA:“… [an] excellent addition to school or home bookshelf.”– The Globe and Mail
