This is the story of "Big J" - Julius Caesar. Where ever you look, he's there: coins, statues, he's a real celebrity, and he's getting a bit too big for his sandals. He is fast losing all his friends, especially Brutus. This is a very enjoyable story about the great Roman general, with an abundance of accurate historical detail in the illustrations, and plenty of amusement to be had with the speech bubbles. 'Did you know?' list at the back offers interesting facts about Julius Caesar. It contains a portrait of Julius Caesar to show what he actually looked like. It includes notes for parents and teachers.
This is Book 3 in the Stories from History Series. See all Stories from History books here.
