Summary

This volume shows the history of ancient Rome through the eyes of an aristocratic Roman child, using vibrant, cartoon-like illustrations and easy-to-read text to immerse young readers in the sights, sounds and smells of the period. By covering familiar subjects such as school, family, careers and entertainment, young readers are able to relate the lives of the historical figures to their own experiences, which aids their ability to absorb historical knowledge. Spreads have multiple entry points, including an introductory paragraph, illustrations and side panels, and the illustrations feature speech bubbles.
