From School Library Journal
Grade 3-5–Each book gives instructions for approximately 10 activities or crafts. A short introductory paragraph and a supply list accompany each one. Bits of trivia, a map, and a time line offer some background on the culture. The projects are varied, but most are made of cardboard and paper. Some of them are underwhelming, such as the two-and-one-half-inch-tall model of a Roman fort. Directions are mostly clear, although there is a measurement mistake on the first craft in Roman. Some phrases and attempts at humor in these titles may give American readers difficulty, e.g., stoned dates versus pitted. In some cases, a subtitle or heading is misleading, and the accompanying text never delivers the anticipated information. The colorful cartoon illustrations are pleasing but lack necessary detail and perspective in several places. Each back cover includes a fold-out, removable sheet of stencils. Safety notes are included. Laurie Carlson's Classical Kids (Chicago Review, 1998) has similar activities with more cultural information.–Carol S. Surges, McKinley Elementary School, Wauwatosa, WI
