5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps the kids happy on long car journeys, 2 Aug 2006
By C. L. Ownsworth (Derby, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We purchased this CD on the basis of another Amazon review and weren't disappointed. Ths kids (aged 8 & 6) love the stories (Heracles, Theseus, Perseus, Jason and the Argonauts among others) and the CD is requested on every car journey! It's a painless way of getting a bit of knowledge/history into us all. The stories are re-told in modern language with some music thrown in for effect at key points, which all adds to the effect. The narrator has a pleasant voice (important when these CDs are played repeatedly!) and even though we all know the stories backward now, enjoy them still.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reading, 5 Dec 2008
I bought this for my son but have also enjoyed listening to it myself.
The reader has a good reading voice (nothing like Julian Clary as another reviewer has suggested) and also does pronounce the names correctly - he uses the now generally accepted Heracles rather than Hercules and this has confused some people.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tales from greek legends, 26 Jun 2009
By T. Howard (Letterkenny, Co Donegal, Republic of Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Tales from greek legends is an excellent CD for travelling with the kids in the car. My children enjoyed listening to the adventures of Zeus and of Heracles. After each story we would pause the disc and allow the kids to ask questions and to query the various aspects of the tales. It's perfect for an hours long journey as it keeps the peace and allows the children to familarise themselves with these tales and it enables them to examine and question the works on their own terms and at their own speed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
I was so disappointed by this audio CD. The actor has a voice similar to Julian Clary and mispronounces some of the characters names! Read more
