Personally, I think the best use of this book would be as an accompaniment to a unit on Aeneas and/or the Trojan War that includes a book with more story-telling. This book gives a very good broad background to the story, but as a bedtime tale it would be a failure.
One of the highlights I especially want to mention is the artwork that the author includes. The book contains many classic pictures by Poussin, da Cortona, Perrier and Brueghel as well as a Roman mosaic and a relief from a clay pot. I think the artwork is important to showing children how the past is connected to the future, and how legends and myths inspire. ( )
