Having not read any Greek tales for some years I found this book informative as to some of the myths and legends of the greeks. It was presented in an enjoyable manner that would appeal to both children and adults, and represents so much of what fascinates modern fans of mythology.
It includes:
The story of Perseus and how he slew the Gorgon, Medusa
The tale of Jason and the Argonauts
The story of Theseus and how he slew the Minotaur

Highly enjoyable! 29 Jan 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
Bought this as I thought it would be great to extend my knowledge of Greek fairy tales and provide some insight into Classical Civilisation.
Riveting writing and great storytelling; makes me even more enthusiastic to continue my Class Civ studies. Also, it's free! Theres no harm in 'purchasing' it!

Better to die in the flower of youth, on the chance of winning a noble name, than to live at ease like the sheep, and die unloved and unrenowned. &quote;

No, children, there is a better thing on earth than wealth, a better thing than life itself; and that is, to have done something before you die, for which good men may honour you, and God your Father smile upon your work. &quote;
