From hieroglyphics to radio, from the Internet to cell phones, advances in communication continue to shape the world in which we live. In Communication From Hieroglyphics to DVDs, children will trace the path of innovations while participating in a guessing game that allows them to track their answers. As young readers turn the pages, they will be introduced to the scientists and inventions that have made communicating faster and more efficient through the ages. Full-color photos, fact boxes, a timeline, and easy-to-read text will engage students as they discover the many ways we communicate.
