This book was a book that you get kinda confused on. Personally I didn't find it a interesting book. The Roman history was interesting but the way the author described it was more towards adults. I didn't like this book that must.

This book was too confusing for my taste. I didn't really like this book, but it included o ton of Roman history. I agree that older people should read this book and that kids my age should read it as adults

This is a very confusing book to read. It explains a ton about Roman history, but it's hard to follow. I really didn't like the book too much though.

This book was a very confusing book. If you want a book that is a fast and a easy read, it is not this one. One the other hand, if you want a book about Ancient Rome this one is perfect. It has many historical events and cultural universals that were the same in Rome. It also takes great intrest in the way Romans lived. My opinion of this book it that it was to hard for kids my age to read. I would much rather read a different book on Rome that is more interesting and has pictures. Overall I think this was a good book for older people and that I think kids my age shouldn't read it.
