See You Later, Gladiator by Jon Scieszka

blankpagealex's review

2.0

In this Time Warp Trio adventure, Joe, Fred, and Sam find themselves transported to the Roman Coliseum for a gladiatorial journey that’s light on history, and heavy on jokes about Latin names. There are some helpful moments when the reader may learn some actual Latin phrases, but education doesn’t seem to be the goal in one of the less fun editions from Scieszka’s series.

The boys end up in ancient Rome, in a gladiator school, where they learn that fighting in the arena was not as glamorous as the old movies and TV shows. They have to figure out a way to escape and find someone to help them find the book, before they are fed to some lions.

More silly fun from Jon Scieszka.

We found this book when it was a wrapped library surprise. I was pleasantly surprised in the fun premise and liked the bits of historical and Latin content. I will check out more of the series.
