I would recommend it to year 2s and 1s. I loved it at the end of the story when the wooden horse went into Troy.

Interesting facts but no coloured pictures and I didn't like Paris

It was fun finding out about the wooden horse. I knew it was going to be that because of the front cover. I liked the storyteller best.

I didn’t like it because it was based on another story that I’ve already read, and the other version was better.

I think you should read this book because it is a Greek historical story.
