Look insideHorrible Histories: Groovy Greeks
Fatter. Funnier. And with bigger pics. A new chunky edition: the same historical splattering of laughter, blood and gore. Apparently the Greeks (we mean the Ancient variety) were a rather groovy bunch. The boys didn’t start school until they were seven, and girls didn’t have to go at all. Greek children invented all manner of cool games just for something to do, and the grown-ups invented the Olympic Games and made the men run naked. But as this book shows you, things were not always quite so jolly… and some of the things the Groovy Greeks did were actually, well, quite horrible. Tee hee!
