| If you are under 15 and therefore too young to see big screen blockbuster, Gladiator, then maybe this amusing book on the same theme will relieve the disappointment. Cheshire author John Malam takes the junior reader on a fascinating voyage through the life — and death — of your average Glad. There are helpful hints on how to gain entrance to their world, to avoid trouble by keeping your slave collar on, and to try to stay alive until midday. A fascinating full-on colour weapon in the battle to get kids to remember historical facts. The pen is mightier than the sword, after all! Review by Diane Cooke, Copyright 2000-2001 - Manchester Evening News |
