The book was good and easy to read so it'll be interesting enough for a big kid but easy enough to read for a little kid... great stories, nice illustrations, and it came in the package pretty good!! Great product 👍

THE PRODUCT IS LOVED BY EVERYONE ...BEAUTIFUL READ. CHILDREN WILL GET TO KNOW ABOUT GREEK MYTHOLOGY VERY EASILY AND BEAUTIFULLY BECAUSE OF THE ILLUSTRATIONS ...AND THE TEXT.EXCELLENT FOR GIFTING RECOMMENDED FOR ,CLASSES 4,5,6

Interesting and enjoyable. The illustrations are on every page which help the reader visualise the story.

Just received the book just now,have only skimmed thru the pages. But looks really good and the illustrations are nice. Went thru some chapters, looks accurately described as per the original Greek mythology. Best part is the illustrations which simplify the complex Greek stories for kids to understand. Look forward to reading this to kids. It's a 350 page book, coffee table book size. Okay for this price. Not sure if it's original Usborne published prints.

My 8 year son liked the whole series of illustrated stories. The stories are written in an interesting way. He thoroughly enjoyed the book.

Super paper quality .. Colors and font size are perfect.. My child loves it..

Very nice book with good illustrations. It has sparked an interest in reading in my son. Will be buying more from the publisher if available.

Well illustrated. Plenty of stories. Great way to enter into the world of Greek myths.

This book (like others in the series) is very well put together, in terms of the content choice, editing for children, and illustrations. It's great fun reading stories that are so well-known and meaningful, rather than the usual mass-produced garbage. My kids have brought this book to me, requesting that we read "the next one" or finish he longer story that we started yesterday. The ribbon to mark your place is a nice touch. With very young children, I do find myself having to gloss over some of the violence and death (there is not a great deal) using different words to soften the story in places, but as the kids grow I think we will return to these stories and have a more honest go at them. Frankly, I prefer the honesty to the original story over an otherwise sugar-coated account.

my 5 year old son has really enjoyed this as bed time stories. lots of adventures. great illustrations. good length chapters to be convenient.

Great illustrations and easily-accessible language. We’re enjoying this book as a family!

I bought several of the Usborne books with collections of various stories, and they really are wonderful. Some have more illustrations, others fewer. But all are beautiful. The simple and yet engaging way they retell these great stories is also perfect for younger kids. Mine is 5.5, but these would easily have worked a year ago and they can be read for several years to come. They use not so simple language but perfect for first/early readers at the same time. So I cannot say enough about how good and on point they are. This one on the Greek myths is really great and full of illustrations. Covers many of the old stories, but don't forget they can be quite tough stories (death and the like).

These books are fine My son is a few months shy of 7 and knew nothing of the Greek myths before this book. Reading it to him i was suprised how much was left out of the tales and would probably have purchsed something else had i leafed through it in a store first, but for him they opened a world of history and mystery and he enjoyed it. There a good way to dip a toe into the mythos but so much is missing. The whole last section of the book other than the map is just pointless and should have been an extra myth. I dont regret the purchase, it was a fun weeks worth of bed time stories, that my son enjoyed. But i am now immediatly looking for another book that covers a little more
