This book has so much to offer your child and I'm sure that they will make it one of their favorites, and they'll discuss and share it with their friends." - Reviewed by Vernita Naylor for Readers' Favorite (5 Star Review) "...so cute. I love the way they blend history into a story that a child will enjoy. We have recently studied Italy, so it was neat to read this book to learn more about it from a different perspective." - Some Call It Natural "Since it's written from the second person POV, it makes you feel that you are there, really getting into the way they lived..." - Rainy Days and Mom Days "Roman also adds a bit of interactive fun throughout the book, such as encouraging readers to look at pictures of a city now and then to discern differences. This encourages the use of the imagination to gain new insights. ... If You Were Me and Lived in ... Renaissance Italy is a fascinating way for children to learn about the Renaissance period and is sure to be a welcome addition to any school's library, teacher's classroom, or child's bedroom." - Kelly Thunstrom, Foreword Reviews "IF YOU WERE ME AND LIVED IN...RENAISSANCE ITALY is an appealing, attractive, and informative historical book for kids. The book is full of information, presented in an engaging and friendly style, and provides a detailed look at what life would have been like for a girl of the protagonist's class and status." - IndieReader "The Renaissance Italy story talks about the emergence from the dark times of the Middle Ages and how people became more interested in art, architecture, and literature." - Kelly Burgess, KGB That's Me! (blog) "It's... written to stir kids interest in that time period and familiarize them with some big Renaissance names like Michelangelo, Machiavelli, and da Vinci. The book is written in a way that makes sense to children. It's well-organized and colorful." - Eva, Kid Minds (blog) "No history course covering western civilization is complete without coverage of the great awakening called the Renaissance and that is not complete without a description of the role of Florence. This book is a very good addition to the resources used in teaching children about life in Florence at that time." - Charles Ashbacker "There is a fantastic and very complete list (with pictures and all) of famous people from Renaissance Italy and so much more. I cannot tell you what an amazing resource this book is and I am so glad to make it a part of our homeschool library." - Tanya, The Natural Homeschool (blog) "Not only is every day life explained, but the importance of art during the Renaissance is also discussed including pictures of famous paintings and sculptures.
