Greek Myths
An outstanding new volume of more than 30 ancient Greek myths for children, beautifully illustrated in a modern style.
Written by Jean Menzies, winner of the Books Are My Bag Breakthrough Author Award 2020, journey into a world of gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, extraordinary creatures and fantastic monsters with this beautifully illustrated introduction to ancient Greek mythology.
Perfect for children aged 7 to 9, Greek Myths contains more than 30 enthralling new retellings of favourite myths as well as some you might not have heard before.
Including Theseus and the Minotaur, The Twelve Labours of Herakles, and the escapades of Jason and the Argonauts, each myth is told in engaging modern language, which is easy for children to understand yet still retains the humour and intrigue of the original tales.
Stunning illustrations by multi-award winning artist Katie Ponder breathe new life into each classic story.
