6 Living History Books about Ancient Greece

You'll love this roundup of living history books about Ancient Greece.

D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths

In print for over fifty years, D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths has introduced generations to Greek mythology—and continues to enthrall young readers. Here are the greats of ancient Greece—gods and goddesses, heroes and monsters—as freshly described in words and pictures as if they were alive today. No other volume of Greek mythology has inspired as many young readers as this timeless classic. Both adults and children alike will find this book a treasure for years to come. “For any child fortunate enough to have this generous book . . . the kings and heroes of ancient legend will remain forever matter-of-fact; the pictures interpret the text literally and are full of detail and witty observation.”—The Horn Book

The Iliad for Boys and Girls

The Iliad is typically described as one of the greatest war stories of all time. Set during the Trojan War, this timeless poem vividly conveys the horror and heroism of men and gods wrestling with towering emotions and battling amid devastation and destruction. Homer's tale is a compassionate view of human life lived under the shadow of suffering and death in the face of an often uncaring divinity.

Archimedes and the Door of Science (Living History Library)

Jeanne Bendick, through text and pictures, admirably succeeds in bringing to life the ancient Greek mathematician who enriched mathematics and all branches of science. Against the backdrop of Archimedes' life and culture, the author discusses the man's work, his discoveries and the knowledge later based upon it. The simple, often humorous, illustrations and diagrams greatly enhance the text.

Marathon Looks on the Sea

Illustrated by Erwin Schachner. The story of the Battle of Marathon and how it determined the future of Athens.

Life in Ancient Athens (Picture the Past)

Despite their differences, there were things that united the city states. Find out more in this exciting title.

Then, I have a minibook on Ancient Greek and Latin root words. The instructions are on the book and so are the answers.

Then I did a flip book (left) that has quotes by Greeks about Greeks. It just gives Tiny some beautiful food for thought to put in his brain and shows what Greeks thought about their every day life.

Too, a quick Why Study About Ancient Greece reminded Tiny about the huge impact Ancient Greece has on American culture.

I don’t have an insert for this minibook because it is a little research project on the internet about why it is important to study about Ancient Greece.

Ancient Greece Athens and Sparta and go fish pocket

Then the next two printables are a pocket and mini two tab book that compares two famous city-states, Athens and Sparta.

The pocket is for the Ancient Greece Go Fish, that I shared earlier.

The Athens and Sparta minibook has a page where your child can glue a few of the facts given about how each city-state is different under the tab, or research and add his own.

Don’t forget too that since this is my third time around studying Ancient Greece with my children that I have two other lapbooks to go with this one.

One lapbook is Ancient Greece and the other Ancient Civilizations II.
