Reviews for Illustrated Stories from the Greek Myths
Just the right present for young children.
Shetland Times
There are many versions of the myths for children out there, but I was particularly wowed by the beautiful illustrations in this one. My seven year-old loved the gore... Perfect bedtime reading for the not-so-squeamish.
