I absolutely loved this book as a kid! It's a great introduction to Greek Myths. It covers the 12 Olympic gods, a few Chthonian (Persephone and Hades), as well as important minor figures like Pan and Echo. The book also has a section for the descendants of Zeus, including Heracles and Oedipus. It's worth noting that these myths are a bit sanitized for kids. Some details are left out or minor things might be changed to make them more appropriate. The art style is a bit dated, but I think it still helps express certain parts of the story well. This book kickstarted my life long love of mythology and really got me invested in Greek myths specifically. ( )

I loved this book as a child. I can still recall looking at the pictures, sitting in my little chair in the school library.

My children loved this book too and I am happy to add it to my shelves.

As would and should be expected of Greek mythology, many of these stories are violent and cruel. ( )

love the cast of narrators, well done. ( )

This beautiful book taught me Greek Mythology and also the concept that there was more than one way to approach the past. I should let another kid have it but it reminds me of my childhood. ( )

This book will highly engage any reader! It is full of the fascinating myths of the Gods and Goddesses, mythological creatures, and heroes of ancient Greece! Beautiful illustrations complement the magical tales.
