Adventures in Ancient Greece by Linda Bailey
The Binkerton trio want to see the next Olympic Games, but instead end up visiting the Games in Ancient Greece. This is the fourth volume in a series of adventure stories in which the Binkerton children grapple with a different period in history. This comic strip story also features information about the period - thanks to the Good Times Travel Agency guidebook, which accompanies the children on their adventure. The guide book provides a running commentary on the time in history, with coverage of the social system, everyday way of life, boats, buildings, clothing and food of the time."
