| This book was purchased for a childrens literature class that I was currently student teaching in. It really held the interest of the third graders class as we ventured to explore Malta and other islands of the Meditterean. It is an excellent book to incorporate history to young minds and held the interest of all the young students I was teaching. I followed up with actual pictures of the temple and also had the children comment on how they thought Xrina's life was different and the same as theirs. I hope to continue with the series of the book and further the childrens interest in history as well!!! |
