Kids in History Books

Even today we can trace the roots of our civilization to Ancient Greece. Its thousands of years later and kids still learn about it in school–and discoveries about it are still being made! But even as democracy and philosophy grew and then flourished, kids still grew up, learned, ate, and played. In this book, readers walk through the streets of Athens and Sparta, learning about their unique culture through children who lived there. The text covers food, clothing, housing, religious beliefs, and more. A mix of historical and modern images helps readers visualize this ancient society.
