'Superb.' The Times Literary Supplement 'Very useful as a reference work … it touches on nearly every question one might have about Roman childhood.' London Review of Books 'If you want to know all there is to know about children in classical (primarily non-Christian) Rome, Laes's learned, sensitive, and elegantly written book is the place to go.' David Konstan, Common Knowledge 'Laes has masterfully presented not only the social meaning of childhood in Roman antiquity, but also the grim realities of children's lives.' Ann-Cathrin Harders, The Journal of Roman Studies
