Horrible Histories

When her soccer team threatens to mutiny, Mo gets a lesson in leadership from one of history’s greatest-- Elizabeth the First. After witnessing the English Queen artfully navigate the treacherous waters of her court as well as a Channel teeming with the invading Spanish Armada, rallying her mates is mere sport for Mo.

Our harried heroes barely escape with their heads when caught in the grip of the many superstitions that contributed to Montezuma’s and the Aztec civilization’s downfall.

When Mo is grounded for righteously refusing to clean her pigsty room, a trip back to the dark days of Medieval England enlightens her about what rights are worth fighting for — and having a messy room is not one of them!

After a down and dirty visit with Leif Ericson and his equally famous and, er, irascible father, Eric the Red, Stitch and Mo set Darren Dongle straight about the amazing accomplishments of the Viking explorers who “discovered” North America — beating out Columbus by 500 years.

Wrestling with the possibility of a wrestling match with Darren Dongle leads our heroes to the original Olympic Games for a few tips and an appreciation of the many contributions of the ancient Greeks to modern culture.

When Darren Dongle stages a coup of the student council promising to model his rule on that of Julius Caesar, Stitch and Mo take a spin back to uncover the full truth about the famed leader and his, shall we say, “sharply abrupt” end — you get the point.
