Great Book I ordered this years ago for my first child. 7 years later, we ordered another one. This is a good version of the Greek myths, with good printing and plenty of illustrations.The Greek myths are integral to so much literature and films - children need a good foundation for future reading and this book gives that.I recommend this book without reservation.Will keep my 8-yr old entertained for hours reading the stories One of my 8-yr old favorite books. Will keep her entertained for many hours as she devours the myths and legends. She cannot wait to tell me about the different gods, goddesses, and mythical creatures described in the stories. The accompanying drawings are suitable for young children.This book is also a perfect birthday gift for kids 7-10 to encourage them to read. I am now getting multiple copies to hand out as birthday gifts.Love the book Love the book. Arrived quickly, in excellent condition. My husband was given a copy of this book by a teacher when he was a kid and he was excited to acquire a copy for our son, who is old enough tonstart reading at this level. For my husband's sake, I wish I had purchased a hardback version, but this one is sturdy and my son and husband have been enjoying this book together.
