Very interesting book about the Han Dynasty in Ancient China. I learned so much. This touches on living arrangements, names, careers, food, leisure activities, ancestors, religion, school, and famous people.

It is simple for children to understand what life was like for the poor and the nobles. It explained the religions found in Ancient China. I liked how each subject was looked at and explained with softly colored illustrations showing what was explained. There was a lot of information which I found interesting and educational. This reminded me of books I read as a child from a series called "Let's Find Out About..."

Well written and informative. It is worth reading. ( )

If You Were Me and Lived in...Ancient China: The Han Dynasty by Carole P. Roman is a children's book but let's get real, all of these books are so informative that adults learn from them too! The tell what is was like for kids to live in that time period. What the child would be named, eat, wear, the furniture, how their hair would be, celebrations and more. Very information in a fun and relatable read. The images are cute and enhance the info. All of these books are wonderful. I received this book for a honest review and it in no way effected my review or rating. ( )

This is a wonderful book for kids to learn about the story of Ancient China. The reader learns about the different classes and how life differed between them. You learn what they ate and why. The author has included information about the three religions. This is a great book to put on my shelves as a resource for my students.
