Ancient history comes alive in this fast-paced middle grade adventure about one of the greatest rivalries the world has ever seen.
In Epic Rivals: Greece and Persia, readers ages 9–13 are transported to a time when a vast empire ruled three continents—and a collection of small, independent Greek city-states refused to bow. From the burning of Sardis to the legendary stand at Thermopylae, from the stunning victory at Marathon to the naval showdown at Salamis and the final clash at Plataea, this book brings the Persian Wars to life with gripping storytelling and clear historical insight.
Discover how citizen-soldiers faced the army of the “King of Kings.” Learn how wooden ships became Athens’ greatest defense. See how strategy, courage, geography, and leadership shaped the fate of the ancient world.
But this story is about more than battles.
It is about two powerful systems colliding: centralized empire versus independent city-states. It asks a bigger question—who really won? And what happened after the fighting stopped?
Perfect for curious readers, homeschoolers, and classrooms, this book includes:
• A clear, engaging narrative written at a middle-grade reading level
• A timeline of key events (499–449 BCE)
• A glossary of important people, places, and terms
• A “Compare the Rivals” section breaking down strengths and weaknesses
• Primary source quotes from both Greek and Persian perspectives
• 30 review questions with answer key for deeper learning
If your child loves competition, big personalities, dramatic turning points, and real history that feels like a story, the Epic Rivals series turns the ancient world into a page-turning experience.
Great Rivals. Big Ideas. Real History.
