Customer Reviews
Pretty good - Rated I think this is a better version of these ancient legends than is the companion Orchard Book of Greek Myths, though the writer and illustrator remain the same. The text here is fuller and less summarized. The ills, though improved on Greek Myths, still for me have a patronising hint to them, as if to suggest that young children today have to everything spelled out to them so they don't get bored or misunderstand. The ills are neither in ancient mode nor modern, but inhabit a bit of an uneasy, jokey limbo between the two styles. Still - the stories themselves still speak to us loud and clear, and here they are, bold and colourful.
