The tittle of this book is called Rotten Romans by Terry Deary.

This book mainly informs the reader on the ancient life and politics of ancient rome. This book will make a lot of connections to the world right now if you come from the U.S.A.. It makes you think about how we do things today and it shows how much the Roman culture influenced moddern day life. This book personally challanged me as a reader because every now and then will use some words that I had to look up in a dictionary. Along with a few hard to understand words and phrases, you really need to watch out for lame jokes in the book. If you read a joke and don't get it reread the passage and think like one of the evil emperors of rome you might just get the joke. (No you won't, it took me ten times just to figure out one joke.)

Note: Do not read this book if you have a bad sense of humor or think that history is boring. Fair warning, some jokes in the book will leave scars in your mind and no matter how hard you try you wont be able to forget them. Enjoy!
