A powerful novel about identity and loyalty, and reaching a hand
out across cultural divides. Aithne is a twelve-year-old girl - a
Briton - who wears the silver moon of a Wise Woman. Castus is a boy
the same age, a Roman servant brought up to think of the Britons as
barbarians not worth sparing. When Castus is sent to infiltrate the
camp of the Britons, these two children from completely different
worlds meet and form an unlikely alliance, before being swept into
Boudicca's rebellion. Reflect is a series of emotionally powerful
books with realistic settings, carefully crafted to promote
thoughtful discussions and develop higher-level reading
comprehension. Written by top childrens authors and developed with
Literacy expert and Series Editor Nikki Gamble, these are books you
can trust to engage, entertain and support childrens personal
development. The books are finely levelled, making it easy to match
every child to stories with the right depth and complexity for
them, and helping them to progress. Each book contains inside cover
notes to help children deepen their understanding and support their
reading comprehension. Teaching notes on Oxford Owl offer
cross-curricular links to relationships education and support
literacy skills.
