See all formats and editions

From a prize-winning author and illustrator comes this wonderfully rich and varied collection of fifteen stories from Greek mythology, freshly retold and made accessible for today's young readers.

All the famous Greek gods and goddesses feature in these legendary stories: Zeus, Hera, Apollo, Paris, Aphrodite, Athens - as well other larger-than-life characters.

Read about how Paris judged who was the fairest goddess of all, how the city of Athens was named and how dolphins were created.

All the magic and drama of Geraldine McCaughrean's retellings are beautifully matched by Emma Chichester Clark's lively illustrations, inspired by Greek art and culture.
