Customer Reviews

A decent, but rather quick, read!

I forgot to check the product details so I was a touch surprised when I received the book and learnt that it’s meant for children! However, even though it’s for kids, I enjoyed it. Easy-to-read and nicely written with beautiful illustrations! I also thoroughly enjoy the fold-out map! One of the only things that I didn’t enjoy in this book was the depiction of a woman in a leotard which didn’t exist in ancient Greece. Other than that, it’s quite nice! It may be just 32 pages long and definitely for children, but it’s still a fun and informative read!
