Synopsis:
People of all places and times have told stories in order to explain and understand the world around them. This unusual collection, rather than focusing on the stories of a single culture, groups myths from many lands according to kind. The bold illustrations brings these stories vividly to life with well-researched detail of costume and setting.
Synopsis: A collection of more than 50 stories which bring to life the adventures of over 100 figures - great heroes and heroines, gods and goddesses, tricksters, demons and she-dragons. The stories come from around the world and throughout history, including Russia, the Amazon, Japan, North America, Africa, Ancient Greece and Rome. The stories are arranged thematically according to the ideas or experiences they cover, and children can learn the importance of story-telling throughout history and in different cultures.
