13. 13 Gladiators by Toby Forward I plan to buy this book to use in the future. Amazon.com Used at 0.01 cents Hardcover Unfold a spectacular model of the world’s most awe-inspiring amphitheater — the Colesseum — and enter an ancient world where, for three hundred years, gladiators pitted their strength and skill against one another. This exciting set includes:: — A sophisticated pop-up scale model of the Colesseum — A forty-page book describing a day at the games — for both a Roman citizen and a slave — Eight gladiator cards identifying weapons and fighting styles — A map of the streets and buildings of ancient Rome — A diagram of the Colesseum and its underground tunnels — Game pieces and rules for playing the ancient Roman game of tabula From School Library Journal Grade 3–5—Marcus is a slave to a beast master who provides animals and gladiators for entertainment in ancient Rome. Lucius is the son of a senator. Both boys are going to the Colosseum for the first time. Through their eyes, readers are able to experience the games from two different perspectives: Lucius as a spectator who saves an elephant and Marcus as participant hoping that his adopted father survives the games and is granted freedom by the emperor. Though the ending is a bit contrived, the text and realistic color illustrations do not hold back in showing how gruesome and bloody the Games were. Sidebars and insets contain historical facts and are accurate except for some confusion with the time periods between the Republic and Empire. Additionally, this slim volume is part of a bigger kit that includes a three-dimensional pop-up of the Colosseum, a map of Rome and the arena, and pieces for the game Tabula, which was played in ancient Rome. A great idea for getting kids interested in history and perfect for individual purchase or displays, but not a practical item for library circulation.—Clare A.
