Reviews
Grade 2-5?This book delivers concise, interesting information on aspects of Greek life. The simple facts, all linked to the Greek numbers 1-10, cover a wide range of territory and provide an excellent basic picture of the country. Unfortunately, Pericles and Phidias (whose names are inextricably linked with the Acropolis) are not mentioned on the page about the Parthenon. Also, it is a bit misleading to say that the ancient Greeks were pioneers in four areas of scholarship, omitting by implication architecture, sculpture, and literature, to name a few. However, these omissions are understandable, due to the rigid format that imposes limitations on the text. Overall, the selection of facts is very good. In some cases, pronunciation and accent guides for words and names of gods are Anglicized versions rather than the true Greek pronunciations, but they will probably be more familiar to children. Porter's paintings capture the sunlit landscape perfectly. A pleasing effort that will be enticing for browsing as well as for homework assignments.?Judith Constantinides, East Baton Rouge Parish Main Library, LA
