I met a Roman last night, what did you do? By Nik Perring
Book review by Claire Morris. (8 years old)
*****
`I met a Roman last night, what did you do?' is entertaining and educational. It tells you about the Romans, the Celts, the Anglo-Saxons, the Vikings, the Normans and the Second World War. It has a character called Jack and every time he goes to sleep he travels back in time and meets a person like a Viking or a Roman. It is an interesting story and I recommend it to people who like a fun story. The chapter names make you want to read on and when you do you're not disappointed. I like the choice of type face a lot. `I met a Roman last night, what did you do?' is a brilliant story. I am glad to be writing a review for it.

This book brings history to life and how! Jack is a sweet likeable boy who thinks sleep is "boring" but the moment he dozes off, he is transported back into the midst of some wonderful vignettes of history where Romans, Celts, Vikings... and many more.
A fun read for young minds.

This is a good book for juniors. It's written in plain, honest prose and there's a clear framework to all the chapters. My son, 8, liked the fact that he knew some of the historical detail covered in the stories, but not all of it, so it reinforced what he'd learned whilst teaching him a bit more. He was quite disappointed when we came to the end because he'd enjoyed the adventures so much and he wanted them to go on and on!

I met a Roman last night ...
... and a jolly good time he showed me too. This is a rollicking adventure story aimed at children, but it can also be enjoyed by their parents. Read more
