readers into stories from the past, allowing children to imagine

that they were really there.

I Was There... Boudica's Army is a fast-paced and fascinating

Boudica leads her people to march on Roman-occupied Colchester,

young Kassy's beloved pony, Honey, is stolen away and taken to

war. Will Kassy be able to find her and bring her home safely?

Amazing black-and-white illustrations throughout bring

the story to life!

Brilliantly reimagined, readers aged 7+ will love this vivid first-hand

account of a child's experience of life in ancient Britain.
