The original "Aeneid" is an epic poem composed by Virgil in the 1st century BCE. It tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero who escapes the fall of Troy and embarks on a journey to fulfill his destiny of founding Rome. Church's adaptation simplifies the language and narrative structure of Virgil's epic, making it more suitable for children and young readers.
"The Aeneid for Boys and Girls" serves as an educational tool, allowing young readers to engage with classical literature and mythology in a format that is more accessible and understandable to them. First published in 1907, it continues to be used in educational settings to introduce children to the rich world of classical literature and storytelling.
This new large print edition comes with an Easy to Read Layout designed to make reading comfortable.
