Our little Carthaginian cousin of long ago

Description

Travel to the sun-drenched shores of ancient North Africa with Bodil, a young Carthaginian boy growing up in the proud merchant city that once rivaled Rome. In Our Little Carthaginian Cousin of Long Ago, readers follow Bodil as he trains with the city’s famed horsemen, learns the rhythms of trade from his merchant father, explores sacred temples, and witnesses the disciplined might of Carthage’s army and navy.

Through Bodil’s adventures—meeting travelers from across the Mediterranean, watching craftsmen at work, setting out on a daring journey, and hearing tales of legendary generals—the bustling world of Carthage comes vividly to life.
Told with warmth and rich historical detail, this engaging story offers a child’s-eye view into one of history’s greatest maritime empires and the people whose courage and enterprise shaped its destiny.
