Book SynopsisSelected for The Children’s Book Council’s March 2023 “Hot Off the Press” Reading List
In Ancient Greece for Kids, readers will discover everything there is to know about Ancient Greece told in a novelty format.
Thousands of years ago, the first tribes arrived in the Balkan Peninsula, laying the foundations of Europe’s oldest civilization: Greece, which gave the world democracy, as well as endless knowledge of mathematics, architecture, military affairs, and philosophy.
Modern scientists can all trace their lineage back to Greek mathematicians and philosophers, and modern Greece is littered with the remnants of beautiful temples and ancient buildings that shaped the taste and style of modern architects. Let’s travel far into the past and discover how the Ancient Greeks lived, worked, fought, and created art.
