Immerse yourself in the world of the Ancient Greeks – discover how they worked and played, and how their fearsome gods ruled every aspect of their lives.

Come on an unforgettable odyssey to the world of ancient Greece!

What was it really like to live in a Greek home, or watch a play in a massive outdoor theatre? How different was life for a kid growing up in Athens compared to a young soldier in fierce Sparta? And how did a civilisation from so long ago come up with such a variety of ideas, from maths to science to politics, that still shape our world today?

Dive into the dramatic stories of mighty gods and goddesses, and meet real-life heroes like Alexander the Great and the brilliant female poet Sappho. Discover what daily life was like for everyday people, from their simple meals to their wild celebrations.

Packed with awesome illustrations, ancient artworks, and amazing artefacts, Ancient Greece brings ancient Greece to life for young readers. Get ready to explore the remarkable achievements of this highly inventive civilisation.
