Alexandra is feeling sad. She’s had an argument with her best friend, Theodora. Who is she going to go to the Acropolis with now? Who is she going to climb the walls with and get up to mischief with? Who is she going to share her impressions of the warriors, scribes and craftsmen with? Her impressions of the palace? Why did the girls fall out? And how will they make up again?

“Friends from Ancient Times” is a series of books that takes us into the past to discover important civilisations, monuments and archaeological sites and find out what they were really like.
