Boudica's army - Hilary McKay

I Was There... is a perfect introduction for younger 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 account of a young girl in the Iceni tribe in AD 60.
As Queen 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?
Brilliantly reimagined and tied in with the new primary curriculum,
readers aged 7+ will love this vivid first-hand account
of a child's experience of life in ancient Britain.
