When We Were Romans is told entirely from the perspective of 9 year old Lawrence. This makes for an absolutely fascinating read. Its so fun to see how a 9 year old perceives things. It is also filled with poor grammar and misspellings, but his only adds to the effect.
When We Were Romans is about Lawrence, his sister, Jemima, and his mom Hannah. Lawrence is the man of the house, and he has his work cut out for him. The family flees England to Rome, where Hannah previously lived, in order to escape from Lawrences father.
As the story moves forward, we begin to see that things are not quite right.
I highly recommend that you read When We Were Romans. Its a wonderfully told story. If youve ever wondered what went through a 3rd graders mind, this is your answer. Pick it up today. Read more at www.carriesclassics.com
