Product Description

So, as the summer passes, Alexis writes his play for the next year's Festival. But then, with his friend Corinna, he learns that Athens has enemies - enemies who do not like Athenian democracy, and who are planning a revolution to end it all . . . --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

By Sussman Pro VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A very under rated author, for this review I wish more of his timeless classics were reprinted. The grammar, sentence structure are of a high standard, this I would say helps the younger reader to gain valuable skills and reinforce their learning - but enjoying the process at the same time. You will not go wrong here, most libraries (UK) still hold a good selection of his works. Enjoy

A Kid's Review
Format:Paperback
A wonderful book but be sure to buy the original not the simplified version. Why children should be patronised by spoiling perfectly good books I don't know.
