Description
Celebrate ancient Greek mythology and civilisation, where Heracles performed his twelve heroic feats and Athena defended the acropolis as the goddess of war and wisdom. For centuries, these tales were at the centre of Greek society and religion. The legends of Greek mythology have been retold around the world in stories like Ovid's Heroides and Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, influencing everything from ancient Roman culture to bestselling American novels of the twenty-first century. Including well-known tales of Medusa and Perseus, sirens, goddesses, and more, this book explores the vibrant stories that live on and inspire young readers to this day.
