Description

Come dive into the world of the Ancient Greeks! From their myths and culture to their wars and ultimate defeat by the Romans, this book covers it all! Both parents and children will enjoy learning what made Ancient Greece such an amazing civilization and seeing why the modern world owes them so much.

The Ancient Greeks gave us so much that we still use today: mythological stories we continue to study in schools and colleges, and The Olympics are just a few. While Greece is just a small European country today, it covered parts of today's North Africa and Iran - and had a society much like ours. Greeks enjoyed great food, music, and reading; society was governed a lot like modern times, and its people were farmers, politicians, artists, and inventors!

Prepare to be amazed about how this ancient society looks so much like our own - and why. Just a taste of what's ahead as you read:

• Greek cities rocked!

• The Face that launched 1,000 ships

• Achilles - and his famous heel

• The Olympic Games - no prizes for second and third place!

• From Dark Ages to the Golden Age - and back again
