As opposed to a lot of the books I've been adding in, this one really needs to be broken up over more than 1-2 setings. Definately an older book, there is more text than pictures, but it is still written to be a (mostly) appropriate read-aloud for this age group. There is the occasional reference to slaying and the like, for those with a bit more senstive children, but it does add a depth to the study. It also introduces some characters we haven't dealt with yet in our other studies much, such as Sophocles and Socrates.
