When in Rome, do as the Romans do! Young readers will love traveling back in time to Rome at the peak of its empire. It is summer of the year A.D. 125. A typical family is celebrating the Roman Games in tribute to the god Jupiter. As they read about Julius, Livia, Marcus, and Julia, readers will join in the fun by doing everything from draping a toga and making a gladiator's shield to learning Roman games and making a fabulous feast. It's a unique, hands-on glimpse into this remarkable civilization. LINDA HONAN (Westborough, Massachusetts) is the Program Director of the Higgins Armory Museum in Worcester, Massachusetts.
