The Random House of Greek Myths by, Joan D. Vinge
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
It's a very good book. It took me to a imaginary place that I'd never been to. It was really fun reading this book.

Great Greek Myths for kids 8 and up
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
There hasn't been a wonderfully illustrated book of Greek Myths for over thirty years, until this lovely Random House book came out. Science fiction author (and anthropologist) Joan D. Vinge breathes vibrant life into the ancient stories so that they touched me as though they were brand new. Their universality is clear and powerful, thousands of years later, in the hands of this masterful author. And the illustrations by artist Oren Sherman are vivid and marvelously colorful. I'm eager to re-read them with children, so that I can share the wonder of these timeless tales.
Fantastic Illustrations!

Ideal introduction to Greek mythology, with gorgeous, deeply colored illustrations. This would make a great Christmas gift for bright children.
