Henry thinks he’s done with time travel. He’s also fed up with his little sister and wants a break. But then he finds himself sent back to Ancient Rome, living with a family whose back-stabbing and revenge plots bring a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘sibling rivalry.’

School has never been weirder—or more exciting. Together with his new friends, Henry manages to save the Emperor and restore harmony to the household—and realise that life in the twenty-first century might not be so bad after all!

A Gladiator Stole My Lunchbox by Thiago de Moraes offers an exciting blend of historical adventure and family dynamics, wrapped up in a time-travel escapade that will delight young readers.
