History buffs and fans of Historical Fiction Books for Kids aged 7+ will have so much fun with this hilarious black-and-white illustrated historical fiction chapter book series set in Ancient Rome, from king of comedy Jeremy Strong.

The series follows Perilus, a Roman boy who loves chariot racing and dreams of riding in the Circus Maximus himself one day. He's got a messy family which always seems to get in all sorts of trouble, and it's up to him to save them from peril every time. But he is not alone. He's got the help of two trusty friends: Croakbag the amazing talking raven and Tiddles the widdling elephant.

If you love funny books, you should check out more from Jeremy Strong, and for some more funny historical fiction (and non-fiction), we've got a great list of titles in our Books for fans of the Horrible Histories series blog post.
