Description

The myths accurately portray the adventures of Pandora, Arion, Orpheus, Heracles, Daedalus, Perseus, Theseus and Arachne.

This book is a collection of some of the most famous and classic greek myths including "Pandora's Box," "Arion and the Dolphins," "Orpheus and Eurydice," "The Twelve Tasks of Hercules," Daedalus and Icarus," "Perseus and the Gorgon's Head," "Theseus and the Minotaure," and "Arachne Versus Athena. The pithy comments made by the characters take away focus from the accuracy and visual appeal of these myths. This former nursery school teacher blends her storytelling skills and humorous illustrations with well-known figures and stories from literature. This book would be good to read to a class and also use children to act the story out as a role play and also to read along acting as the characters so they could read the speech bubbles.Consideration of Instructional Application: This book, as I said, would be great for introducing graphic novels to children. This irreverently funny book is just right for children 9 and up who shy away from anything that smacks of schoolwork and can be a bridge to territory they might otherwise never visit. I also bought the Romans book at the same time but feel that that one is more suited to a slightly older reader of say 7-8 minimum due to the more factual nature, whereas this one could be enjoyed by readers as young as 5 as it is made up of a series of short stories. I gave this book three stars because even though i did enjoy this book I felt as if it was not one of the BEST children's books I have read. When working with children I would read this book to them for entertaining or use it for a subject on mythology.

I think this is better for children to read by themselves and I’d go for ‘The Orchard Book of Greek Myths’ if you’re going to read to the kids.
