Diary Of Dorkius Maximus
Tim Collins, Andrew Pinder
Dorkius Maximus is a young boy growing up in ancient Rome. This hilarious diary recounts his exploits as, desperate to become a great Roman hero, Dorkius enlists the help of his father’s friend, Stoutus, to teach him the noble art of fighting. But heroism doesn’t come naturally to Dorkius. Plus, his dad doesn’t listen to him, his friends pick on him, and his mum is more interested in her sacred chickens. Dorkius knows there’s a mighty warrior inside him, just waiting to get out …isn’t there? Humorously illustrated by Andrew Pinder, this book will delight any child who would like to get a taste of life as an ancient geek.

A hilarious tale , about a young boy who wants to follow in his older brother's footsteps , become a roman hero by saving julius ceaser , learn how to sword fight and train , show his dad that he is excellent and stop being compared with his brother. I recommend this to some on who loves reading the diary of a wimpy kid , Dork diaries , world of norm,Eddie Eckhart and many many more diaries!

This book is just funny! Plain fun and another good thing is that I get to learn about history. A must for any history and humour loving children!

There is a boy and he wants to be a Roman hero but he is not good at fighting and in the end he saves the best solider in the land from dying so he turns out to be a hero and gets to ride in a golden chariot.

This book is very funny and disgusting and got some bloody parts and the best bit is when Cornelius got scared by Dorkius and Cornelius peed his pants and everyone laughed at him

I enjoyed the humour in this book and that it had a glossary of hard roman words in.
