Review: Beautiful timeless and inspiring - I grew up in America and this book was in my elementary school library (Dewy Decimal System, anyone?) but once I discovered it, it was checked out to me more often than not. The stories are wonderfully told and the illustrations and timeless. This book sparked my interest in fables myths and legends and my interest in drawing. I recently purchased this book for my friend’s daughter as a birthday present. Her parents have confirmed that she is finding it as fascinating as I. I am so glad they have updated this version with a bit about the D’Aulaires family and the writing and illustrations. It really is a wonderful book...I might have to get myself a copy, too.
Review: Fantastic book! - Great book. I've got it for my 9-year old who is studying greek mythology in school at the moment. She was absolutely delighted. We spent many hours reading the book and discussing the stories. The book is written in a simple language for 9-10 year olds, but probably anyone younger will find it hard to understand. Many concepts are explained simply and without extra ambiguity. Those who knows greek mythology may remember that gods relationships were a pure incest most of the time (i.e. Zeus and Io had an affair and Io was Zeus' neice and so on...) However, the wording in the book is such that it does not pose the question to young minds about having the relationship "other than being friends" with anyone related to them. Book also illustrates how ancient greeks explained the change of seasons and other things in the nature. I believe it is one of the things that child must have. P.S. The book is also a great value for money and the soft cover one is fairly large and presented well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My favorite book as a child, excited to share it with my son.
*by A***W on 30 September 2019*

An older copy of this book was given to me when I was about about 10 years old. It was my favorite book for many years, I must have read some of the stories hundreds of times. The illustrations are beautiful and evocative. The language is well graded for children but not too simplified; some books gloss over the nuance of the myths. I'd forgotten about this book until I read Neal Stephenson's 'Fall' and it brought back all my memories about the book. I've bought this copy for my son, who is still a bit young to read it on his own, but I look forward to reading it to him at night.
