  Readers are taken on a journey through ancient Rome with an authentic and appealing cast of characters at work, at home, and at play. The sounds, smells, and textures of everyday Roman life are vividly evoked as young readers march through the rain with Vespian's centurions as they escort Lepidina over the mountains and visit a very important queen, witness a gladiator show at an arena, and visit the bathroom with noble Romans, Candidus and Flavinus. Part of the Fly on the Wall non-fiction series based on 'fly-on-the-wall' reporting.

  Learn all about the Roman way of life as we go on patrol with Vespian's centurions, on the toilet with Titus and Marcus and to battle with Felix. Complete with pages blotted with squashed insects, olive oil and fingerprints, this book should have the ancient Romans springing from its pages.
