Oxford Children's Ancient History

by R.E.C. Burrell Author

(From Amazon): From the earliest civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt and China, through the glories of Greece and Rome to the fall of the Roman Empire, this children's history tells the story of the ancient world. It is a tale of mighty conquerors and common people, of myths and legends, and of the hard realities of making and keeping huge empires intact. The text is blended with personal dialogue based on real historical characters.
