With a commitment to real history and not just frivolity, ''Roman'' is a book that would appeal to the mini historian who has a real interest in the subject and not just the oddities of the past. An inclusion of a well-drawn map and timeline means that there is real knowledge to be gained here – I for one benefitted from knowing which Emperor lived when. The only issue may that children who are used to more extraneous history facts could find this book a little serious and dry in places.
They may be a bit grim, but there is no denying that [[Rotten Romans (Horrible Histories) by Terry Deary]] is great fun. More serious fact fans can get a lot of knowledge from something like [[National Geographic Kids Infopedia 2016]]. We also have a review of the Greenbergs' take on the [[The Ancient Egyptians by Imogen Greenberg and Isabel Greenberg|ancient Egyptians]].
