"Like Platt’s previous ‘diaries’ about castles, pirates, and ancient Egypt, this offers an accessible introduction to history." — Booklist Iliona never imagined that her sea voyage from Greece to Egypt would lead to Rome, but when she is captured by pirates and auctioned off as a slave, that’s where she lands. Readers are invited to view the wonders of Rome through Iliona’s eyes—the luxury, the excess, and the politics. Back matter includes notes for the reader, a glossary, and sources.
A diary account of a Greek girl's experience of life as a slave in Rome.
This hilarious diary recounts the exploits of Dorkius Maximus, a geeky young boy growing up in ancient Rome.
"Platt weaves vast quantities of nautical information into a text as lively as it is absorbing." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Curious about life on a pirate ship? Check out PIRATE DIARY: THE JOURNAL OF JAKE CARPENTER, an account of adventure on the high seas as told by a feisty nine-year-old carpenter’s apprentice, circa 1716. Historically accurate illustrations of ship and crew, a map of Jake’s travels, and a detailed glossary and index vividly reveal the fascinating - and harsh - life of a pirate in the eighteenth century. Ships ahoy!
It's August AD 78 in the great city of Pompeii - a day of strange encounters and even odder portents. What does it all mean? And why is Claudia so disturbed by Vesuvius, the great volcano that looms over the city?
This lively black and white series aims to make history into an interesting read. Each title is the chatty personal diary of a teenager, set against the background of a specific historical time. The books include details of daily life, relations with family and friends, jokes and humorous events, doubts, hopes and dreams. The storyline of each book employs interesting historical facts designed to give an understanding of the period in line with the National Curriculum; the diary format supports the National Literacy Strategy. To add variety to the mixture there are extras: a recipe, shopping list, sketched map or the sort of ephemera, lists and notes that young people might add to their own private diaries. The black and white illustrations make characters and events come alive and add historical detail. History Diaries build on the success of accessible, humorous history in this format, but takes the genre in a new and appealing direction.
