![]() I liked that this book provided accurate information on an important society in history in a the for of an illustrated picture book. This can be used in a lesson about different lifestyles and cultures of ancient societies, archaeology and artifacts, and even the difference between AD and BC. An interesting aspect of this book is that the author, Mary Pope Osborne, also decided to insert questions and “fun facts” throughout the book – some of which are answered/elaborated on in the rear of the book. There were full spread illustrations that helped visualize new terms as well. The language was easy to understand, and uncommon terms were defined. This is a nonfiction book and although some student’s may be turned away by this information, this book is written in a way that maintains the audience’s attention. This is an informational picture boo that recounts the activities, social structure, and food of the people of Pompeii.
