In Maud Higham’s timeless gem Three Roman Pennies—an insightful and fascinating children’s adventure story first published in 1931—a trio of siblings are magically transported to ancient times. Recently unearthed from the author’s family archive, this tale has been reissued for the enjoyment of young, modern audiences with a taste for time-travel or hungry for historical fiction. Although manifestly not a school book, Three Roman Pennies is firmly based on historical sources, whereby the reader grasps what everyday life might have been like in Roman Britain—fostering knowledge, understanding and empathy. We are familiar today with books that "make history come alive." Three Roman Pennies, an original of the genre, amply demonstrates the inestimable value of such fiction in forming our views of the world.
