These little Magic Tree House Research Guide books I found to be an asset. They have short, fact filled sentences and paragraphs, which include the pronunciation of difficult words. There are also black & white photos and illustrations to give the child a good idea what the writer is speaking of.
This book (Ancient Greece and the Olympic Games) covers the following:
- Introduction to Ancient Greece, including Athens and Sparta
- Ancient Greek Religion, which includes their temples, festivals and gods
- Daily life in Ancient Greece – houses, clothing, education, marriage, fun
- Ancient Greece Culture – philosophy, science, medicine, architecture, drama, poetry, arts
- Early Olympics, Olympic Grounds, and the Games themselves
