The First Persian Empire was the largest and best organised civilisation of the ancient world. It had a 1,500 mile road connecting its trade routes, as well as the first mail service. The Persians were expert metal workers, and their cities were advanced for their time. The empire lasted more that 200 years. How did it thrive? What made it come to an end? This 48-page book contains no more than 2,000 words so as not to overwhelm struggling readers. Each page is supported by colourful images to support comprehension. Also includes content vocabulary defined in context and repeated in a glossary at the back of each book.
