In my opinion this is the best Roman book I’ve ever read and it talks about the cut through celts so I would recommend reading the cut through celts after this one.

Because it says that SPQR stands for senatus populusque romanus. Yes, I would recommend it to someone else.

One of my favourite Horrible Histories books. This book is about Roman history. I thought it was funny. I liked the joke about: “Doctor, doctor, have you got something to keep my teeth in?’ ‘ Certainly Madam, here’s a paper bag.’

I thought the book was good, it was funny whilst giving facts. It told you a lot about the Romans and how they lived. I would recommend this book especially for those kids learning about the Romans at school.

This was a great addition to the "Horrible Histories" series, and helped me to revise my facts on the Romans. It is funny but has a lot of historical accuracy too! Did you know? Emperor Caligula made his BF Incitatus a consul, meaning that he was an extremely powerful ruler in the Roman Empire. So what? Incitatus was his favourite HORSE!
