British Museum: So You Think You've Got It Bad? A Kid's Life in Ancient Greece, Hardback Book

British Museum: So You Think You've Got It Bad? A Kid's Life in Ancient Greece Hardback

Illustrated by Marisa Morea

Part of the So You Think You've Got It Bad? series

Hardback

Description

Part of Nosy Crow's list of publishing in collaboration with the British Museum and developed in consultation with one of the world's leading experts on Ancient Greece.

This has witty, carefully researched text, packed with historical facts, by award-winning author Chae Strathie, brought to life with rich, humorous illustrations by super-talented Marisa Morea. A kid's life in ancient Greece might sound like fun, what with all that brilliant sunny weather and watching the Olympic Games, but actually life for kids could be pretty hard.

In this hilarious book, children will learn just how tough life really was, from living on a diet of blood soup whilst wearing nothing but a cloak, to having to learn a poem that was over 15,000 lines long!

Thanks, but no thanks, Homer! Probably the first book about ancient Greece to feature a race between a go-kart and a goose, this is a must read for kids with a passion for horrible history!
