I Survived the Destruction of Pompeii, AD 79 by Lauren Tarshis

4.0

Read this with my daughter, these books are great for introducing children to historical events and catastrophes. The main characters, kids themselves, are resilient and, as the titles say, SURVIVE through life and death situations - good inspiration for young readers to find courage in themselves and learn some history.
