Two thousand years ago, by the Bay of Naples, the town of Pompeii was completely buried under volcanic ash and molten rock when the volcano Vesuvius exploded. About seventy years ago, archaeologists uncovered one of the finest houses in the city, along with three skeletons: one of a man, one of a young girl, and one of a dog. Using clues from the excavation site, along with their knowledge of life in Italy 2,000 years ago, archaeologists have recreated who these people were, what their lives were like, and what they were doing when the volcano exploded.
Informative sidebars, full-color paintings and photographs, and a compelling "I Was There" narrative will pull young readers into the action of history.
