Short, concise overview of the myths. However, the author picked different tellings of the myths from different translators/writers, so there was little consistency. Plus, some of the retellings chosen are not the widely accepted ones, so it threw a wrench in the whole thing. ( )

I really enjoyed this book because I felt like it had great illustrations, and it was very colorful and bright. It also had many stories and myths about Greek Gods and Goddesses and mythical creatures. I think this book is good for the 7-10 age range. It can be for primary or intermediate students.

Growing up I loved Greek myths, but my schools didn't offer many books on them. I googled them on the Internet, but nothing was as fun as a good book growing up. I'm super pumped to grab a non-fiction children's book about greek myths! Ah, what a time!

There's a brief introduction to Ancient Greece and myths before the real action starts. Once you're in, it gets going and it's great! It brings to life the famous greek myths about how the world came to be, and it's told in a really compelling way with exciting pictures with it. Many (and I mean MANY) of the gods get bios as well as their stories told. It's a great collection that is made fun, fast and addicting. I honestly wish this would have been around for my greek studies back in grade school! This is a marvellous resource I highly recommend!

I absolutely love the art work. It has those greek mural vibes and was really impressive! Those stood out massively to me since they were so gorgeous and attention grabbing. Easily middle graders up to adults will enjoy this book.

Five out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and DK Children for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )

I received an ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Beautifully illustrated book to introduce Greek mythology to children. The diagrams for each god with its symbology and description were gorgeous, I almost wish there was a companion card game with the god illustrations. As for the text, it contains several versions of the myths I had not read before. I would have been all over this book as a kid. ( )
