Caroline Lawrence's amazing Roman Mysteries series of young adult historical mystery novels will be produced as a five-hour television miniseries for the BBC, with a planned release on British television in 2007 or 2008. Filming will take place in Greece, Malta and Bulgaria.
Many BBC productions have very high production values; the best (mostly due to the high-powered cast of Shakespearean actors) was the landmark 1976 miniseries I, Claudius.
Much more information, including photos, can be found at Caroline Lawrence's production diaries, part of her official Roman Mysteries website.
Ms. Lawrence visited my school in March 2005 and spoke to my sixth-grade students. I have a small photo gallery from her trip. If you scroll down to the bottom third of Ms. Lawrence's July 2005 fanmail page, you can read letters and see scrolls made by my students. There's also a great photo of Ms. Lawrence surrounded by all of the students who came to hear her speak.
You're laid in powerful meaning of stream, in green meaning of pine and in feeling the voice of the bird who say about spring. I poor my hands on my eyes and again try to see better. This time I see a sky as huge as you, blue.
