Mr. Benn, Gladiator by David Mckee

Mr Benn visits a costume shop, where by choosing a costume and going through a special door, he can travel to the era represented by the costume. Mr. Benn decides that he likes the Romans, because they made good roads - so he chooses the Roman costume, which is that of a gladiator. Suddenly, as if by magic, the shopkeeper appeared...and he is transported to ancient Rome. But he has forgotten that gladiators fought each other. The Emperor is inspecting the road building, and when he sees Mr Benn, he has him carried off to the arena. The worried gladiators there explain that they must fight, even though fighting is wrong. Will it be thumbs down for the alternative entertainment Mr Benn proposes? Four Mr Benn books were published in the 1980s.
David McKee was brought up near Tavistock and studied at Plymouth Art College. His first book was published in 1964. His books are now published in many languages throughout the world, and many of them have been adapted for television. Elmer the patch work elephant is David McKee's brainchild, and he is the one of the most highly acclaimed contemporary children's book creators.
