en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 dec 2026 – vârsta până la 9 ani
From the author of the blockbuster Horrible Histories series, also a TV show and movie, who has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide.

Horrible Histories author Terry Deary presents a hilarious collection of Saxon tales based on exciting true stories - four books in one! Perfect for history fans (and those who don't know they're history fans yet) aged 7+.

The Witch Who Faced the Fire: Follow young Ardith Hutton on her journey as a cunning man's apprentice, learning magical cures for diseases and pains. But are they really magical? Does Ardith have the ability to cure the villagers when they seek out her assistance? They might just accuse her of witchcraft...

The Lord Who Lost His Head: With royalty, bandits, blacksmiths and gold coins, this tale is packed with humour and trickery. Local village girl Marian needs to play it safe and smart; her family and the village are counting on her.

The King Who Threw Away His Throne: King Vortigern was a fool with more brains in his beard than his skull. What will he do when the Saxon hordes plan to invade Britain? Join Mervyn on his great attempts to aid the king in defeating the Saxons.

The Shepherd Who Ate His Sheep: It's the dead of winter, and all Upton Medway has to eat is pea and ham soup... without the ham. Steal a sheep and hope nobody notices, of course! But when the owner comes looking for the thief, who will take the blame?

Terry Deary's Terrible True Tales: Saxons explores the world of the Saxons and features real people from the thrilling time period. Packed with fun illustrations from Tambe, the four stories take place in some of the most recognisable Saxon settings.

Recenzii

Terry Deary's Terrible True Tales: Second World War is another brilliant addition from the master of making history thrilling, funny, and deeply human. Known worldwide for his Horrible Histories series, Deary once again proves he has a unique gift for bringing the past to life in ways that feel both educational and wildly entertaining.

This collection brings together four gripping stories set on the British Home Front, each inspired by real people and real events. From daring escapes and tense spy hunts to secret thefts and black-market dealings, every tale captures the uncertainty, danger, and courage of wartime Britain-but always through the eyes of ordinary children and communities.

This book of tales from the Second World War features four stories, from the escapades of a young evacuee, foiling a set of German spies, to a barrel heist and pesky rationing.

For any child with a love of history, watching Horrible Histories or adults wanting to teach a bit of the era to their kids, it's a great read and one that can intrigue young minds.

The stories are all really well written, being both compelling, entertaining and informative without being too heavy. They also feature some capturing illustrations making it a great addition to a young and growing bookshelf.
