This fascinating and funny comic book collection is the perfect introduction to the world of the ancient Romans. Including six mythical tales retold in comic strips, readers will learn about the founding of Rome in 'Romulus and Remus', meet a callous cyclops in 'Polyphemus and Ulysses', and much more. Each myth is told in engaging modern language, which is easy for children to understand yet still retains the humour and intrigue of the original tales.
