Greek Myths For Children

A powerful sorceress, horrid monsters, terrific storms, scheming usurpers, and the gods themselves, all conspire to prevent Ulysses from returning to his home in Ithaca.

L'avvincente racconto della nascita di Roma, dalla distruzione di Troia alla fondazione della Città Eterna, in una narrazione vivace e spiritosa che intreccia mito, leggenda e la storia con la s maiuscola. La fuga di Enea da Troia in fiamme, l'amore per Didone e la conquista del Lazio, senza dimenticare Marte, Venere e Saturno da cui la città discende, la leggenda dei gemelli e della lupa capitolina, per arrivare fino a Romolo, il primo re, e a Numa, il re saggio.

The merciless Cronus and his Titan buddies are in hot pursuit of Zeus, Hera, and Poseidon, who plan to travel across the treacherous boiling sea in order to save a fellow Olympian. They have a boat, but they also have a problem: Poseidon can't swim and is terrified of the water (well, really of the creatures that lurk in its depths). The group faces danger after danger as they battle singing sirens, a fishy and ferocious Titan named Oceanus, and people-eating monsters sent by Cronus himself.

It is both amazing and wonderful that so much of the richness of our language and our moral education still owes a huge debt to a Greek slave who was executed over 2,000 years ago. Yet "sour grapes", "crying wolf", "a dog in a manger", "actions speak louder than words", "honesty is the best policy", and literally hundreds of other metaphors, axioms, and ideas that are now woven into the very fabric of Western culture all came from Aesop's Fables.
