Jan. 2022. Tr $32.79. Gr 35 Among the usual gods and goddesses, readers will learn about centaurs, Pegasus, and Medusa in this fascinating series. It is hard to make a series about Greek mythology feel fresh, but the authors manage to do just that. With easy-to-read yet richly detailed text, young readers will encounter stories about their favorite deities that are not often recounted in other series. Classical illustrations and photos of statues and antiquities accompany the text. Topics cover the deities in art, how they were worshipped, and how views of them may have evolved over time. Online content and primary sources are available for close reading exercises and text-to-text questions. Each title wraps up with legendary facts, a glossary, further reading, an index, and online resources from the publisher. VERDICT Greek mythology is perpetually popular among children. This series builds on that interest with exciting stories and interesting new details. An excellent addition to libraries.
