‘The Nasty Romans of Maiden Castle ’ is the fifth of the ‘Amazing Adventures of Scary Bones the Skeleton.’In this adventure, Scary Bones, Sasha and Ben are taken back to Roman Britain by Queen Do-you-see-her. Captured by Maximus and Minimus, two nasty Romans, they are given to the Roman Governor, Verymuch Ridiculous, the nastiest of nasty Romans, to fight Biggest Bullyus and Baddest Brutus, the nastiest of nasty gladiators, and Richard, a hungry red lion. Can Scary Bones and the Red String save their friends from certain death in the arena? .In all of his adventures Scary Bones is accompanied by a magical and rather strange piece of red string, which is no less brave than Scary Bones himself, and indeed rescues and saves him and the children in many scary situations.Every Scary Bones book comes with a mysterious sealed envelope which cannot be opened until the very end of the story. This adds excitement and mystery to the stories which both children and adults love and share. |

The children identify with Scary Bones, Sasha and Ben and regard them as friends. The stories capture their imagination. They love the cliff-hangers in the stories and guessing what happens next. The use of actual places intrigues them. It makes the stories even more real, and provides opportunities for further learning and a broadening of their experiences. Their biggest accolade is when we finish a story; they immediately ask to hear or read another. (PS. Teachers enjoy the stories as much as the children!)’. Teacher, Anderton Park School, Birmingham.
