See Inside an Ancient Greek Town by R. J. Unstead

This is an older book, and when you open it up, you can certainly tell (or at least my library's copy is).  Pictures look older, and text is formatted so it looks like its not going to be very interesting.  But, don't let that fool you.  I actually like how this book is laid out. Very interesting information, some of which we haven't encountered in our other books yet, it gives a bit more detail, without giving too much for this age group, which is admittedly a fine balance. 

Overall, I think this is one one of our favorite books about Ancient Greece, but I almost didn't give it a chance after opening it to see.

There are several other books in this series, if you enjoy this one.  Chinese town, castle Roman town, galleon, and others.
