The mythological traditions of ancient civilizations are richly explored and vibrantly presented here. The beautiful illustrations and thrilling narratives will captivate your readers with tales of gods, heroes, and monsters from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Chinese, Mesoamerican, and West African myth. Each book includes a glossary of new words, and is adapted into standard Latin-American Spanish. Readers will delight with additional features such as the Family Tree, which explains the often-complicated relationship between mythological features. Another helpful feature is the list of major characters, which introduces the players of each book with an illustration accompanied by a pronunciation guide and brief biographical sketch.
