A Visitor’s Guide to Ancient Rome

---

This book is written as if it were a travel guide for tourists visiting Ancient Rome around 100 CE. It offers a fun and engaging look into Roman life, presented with humor and colorful cartoon-style illustrations that make history accessible to young readers.

Readers will “tour” famous landmarks such as the Colosseum, Roman baths, temples, markets, and villas. The book explains what Roman people wore, what they ate, how they worshipped, how they entertained themselves, and how they structured their society. Each section includes quirky facts, maps, timelines, and a friendly tone that imagines the reader as a visitor to this ancient civilization.

This guide combines educational content with a storytelling approach, making it ideal for both leisure reading and classroom use. It also includes internet links for further exploration.
