Reviews
The book was very funny, and at the same time it taught me about the past. I learned about what happened in different countries like Russia and Egypt. I learned about how the people dressed at the time, what they ate and medicine at the time.

A wonderful book full of humour, information and knowledge, and nice illustrations. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book cover to cover and can’t put it down. We should learn from history.

I liked this book because I like learning about history. It’s non-fiction and factual, and any other Horrible Histories reader would love the book!

I thought it was very funny and had lots of great historical facts. I enjoyed how funny it was and my favourite part was when it gave facts on the Aztecs.

Master Viktor Mittens 17.09.2021
Read pages 1 - 35 Up to era of beastky barbarians. 4 because yet to finch all chapters. Also bevausensome illustrations are not as nice as I thought they would be, meaning some show too much violence which is not to my satisfaction.
