I am a voracious reader and used to be a learning support assistant in a senior school for eight years before leaving to home school my now adult daughter. Silvia loves her dad and joins in with all his role-play adventures with great enthusiasm, enjoying his company and expertise as she does so. This children’s book is ideal for: imagining Roman History through a modern child’s eyes and appreciating people’s innate talents. Reading the story will encourage discussion about what is cool and what’s not, alongside promoting the enjoyment of different activities with different groups of friends or family.
Hugely entertaining and educational with lively illustrations and a fun glossary, this is the perfect read for kids studying the Romans in KS2.Following her dad’s battle re-enactment, Silvia de Luca ends up having to follow him back in time to Ancient Rome. Marie Basting has pulled off a comic but poignant read with a great structure and laugh out loud lines - one of my faves: families that slay together, stay together! Suddenly Silvia finds herself half-schoolgirl, half-goddess with the fate of her entire family resting upon her.

Livi and her dad’s favourite pastime isn’t necessarily the same as her friends but, for the most part, she’s Ok with this. I really loved how she found out the she was a demo-god and had some very famous Roman mythology characters for brothers and sisters. As an amazing adventure begins to unfold, Livi isn’t sure how to decide what to do next, especially as there could be far-reaching consequences whatever happens. Whilst re-enacting a Roman battle at Hadrian’s Wall Silvia’s dad slips through a portal, dragging the whole family back to ancient Rome.
