We borrowed this book for Classical Conversations Cycle 1.
My kids (ages 6 and 4) found this book preferable to another we got on the topic. This book is short and includes some great illustrations and photos, and was a relatively quick read for us to go through. The illustrations and maps brought out lots of questions, and to me that's one way to know we've got a good book!
Their favorite part was the story of how Rhodes attacked Halicarnassus. I preferred another book, one by Diana Bentley in association with the British Museum, which included significantly more detail. But this book was more interesting to my kids...at least at this age. We'll try the other book again when they get older.
