About This Item
Scholastic/Franklin Watts, 2008. 1st Paperback Edition Assumed 1st. Soft cover. New/No Jacket Issued. Color illus. by David Antram (all 3 books). CONDITION: NEW 2008, 3 large Scholastic/Franklin Watts paperback books on the ancient Americas from the "You Wouldn't Want To" series, 1st paperback edition, assumed first, although one is a reprint. Color illustrations all 3 by David Antram. Colorful and hilarious. CONTENT: AZTEC SACRIFICE: In Aztec Sacrifice, "you" are a captured warrior and end up having your heart cut out as an offering to the gods. Suggestions are made as to why a warrior would not be too scared, maybe because an herbal potion could make him feel drowsy and peaceful. Every spread offers a "Handy Hint" box. In Aztec Sacrifice, it is suggested that "you" make offers to your city's guardian god for protection. Of the three volumes, Aztec Sacrifice is the most gruesome and will therefore appeal to a certain clientele. INCA MUMMY This interactive series will enthrall young and reluctant readers by making them part of the story. Invites readers to become the main character. Each book uses humorous illustrations to depict the sometimes dark and horrific side of life during important eras in history. MAYAN SOOTHSAYER: It may have been an honor to be a Mayan soothsayer's apprentice, but it wasn't always fun. This interactive series will enthrall young and reluctant readers by making them part of the story, inviting them to become the main character. Each book uses humorous illustrations to depict the sometimes dark and horrific side of life during important eras in history. In addition to studying, you'd have to do all kinds of unpleasant jobs - like taste unappetizing food, pierce holes in royal tongues, and preside over human sacrifices.
