Get ready . . . you’re a hardworking farmer trying to support your family. But you disobey the Emperor’s orders and soon you’re marching through deserts on your way to work on the Great Wall of China! "You Wouldn't Want To Be" is a constantly-growing library of exciting titles which transport the reader to the grisliest times and places in history. The first-person narrative approach puts the reader in the shoes of some of the most unfortunate people ever to have lived. Humorous cartoon-style illustrations bring the characters to life, while informative captions explain processes or chronological events.
