Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Abbandonata in fasce su una montagna dal padre, il re Jaso, che desiderava un figlio maschio, la piccola Atalanta viene allevata da un'orsa sotto lo sguardo vigile di Diana, la dea della caccia; divenuta una giovane donna forte e coraggiosa, parte alla scoperta del mondo e compie imprese straordinarie. Il suo coraggio, la sua forza d'animo, la sua integrità fanno sfigurare eroi come Teseo e Giasone, dei quali si conquista il rispetto e l'amicizia. Per la prima volta Gianni Rodari affronta il meraviglioso mondo della mitologia greca e racconta, con la sua consueta maestria, la storia di un personaggio femminile capace di lasciare il segno anche nell'immaginario dei lettori di oggi.
