Synopsis

A Child's History of Britain introduces readers to British history from a child's viewpoint. Each book introduces general features of the time period, but focuses on what life was like for children, including where they lived, what they learned at school and where they worked. A final section explores how we use historical evidence to reconstruct the past. What would you wear if you were a child in Roman Britain? Which foods did the Romans bring to Britain? Would you have gone to school in Roman Britain? Life in Roman Britain explains what life was like for young people during the centuries when Britain was part of the Roman Empire. Includes full colour illustrations, a glossary and a quiz.
