Book 1 in the Hopeless Heroes series that takes readers on fun adventures back to Ancient Greece!

When Tim Baker breaks his mum’s favourite vase, it’s the least of his problems. The Greek hero he’s released is in danger of doing far worse. To the flowers, the rug— "Oh, no! Not the kitchen!" Hercules is only trying to be helpful but he’s just hopeless. It’s time to send this dim demigod home before Tim becomes ancient history.   Includes a QR code for the free audiobook!   About the Hopeless Heroes series: Hopeless Heroes is a fun-filled series about Greek mythology, adventure and what it means to be a hero. Readers aged 7+ will love diving into the world of Tim Baker and his (sort of) friend Hercules. A great series to bridge the gap before the Percy Jackson series.
