I liked this book of poems because we have studied a lot of this in History at school. I really liked Ancient Greece, as I would like to go there. The Romans were very good!

An excellent variety of historical poems ranging from long to short poems, lengthy to tiny verses all exploring a different historical era. Suitable for primary school and above a hysterical book for the family.
