Aliens, Eh! Jennifer Hayman Young

This is a novel for children ages 9-12. It tells the story of a Roman boy and his Greek slave, who are mysteriously transported to a cave in Northern Ontario. They are found by William and his friend Joseph (who knows some Latin). The Canadian boys must decide whether to reveal the "aliens" to our world, and how much of our world to reveal to them, just as the Roman and his slave must discover how to leave "Canada" and return to Rome - across many lands and over many seas - when they do not even know that they have also crossed 2,000 years !
