Reader reviews for The Trojan Horse: How the Greeks Won the War

From the publisher

The Trojan War is one of the most important events in Greek mythology. It comes to life in this exciting Step 5 leveled reader about the Greeks' clever use of the Trojan Horse to wage a battle inside the walls of the city of Troy.

Based on the legends of ancient scribes Virgil and Homer this hight-interest story is easy-to-read for proficient readers, but the action and adventure will entice even the most reluctant readers. Step 5 books are written in chapters and illustrated in full color throughout.

"An ancient history lesson emerges from this account of the way the Greeks tricked the Trojans and rescued Helen of Troy. The book is well tailored to younger readers with careful explanations and short sentences; a pronunciation guide is appended. Drawings portray the story's main events. A nice supplement to units on ancient Greece or mythology." --Booklist.
